The first US-Germany Climate and Energy Summit 2022 was held in Pittsburgh on September 21-22 alongside the Global Clean Energy Action Forum (GCEAF) and brought together CEP stakeholders from BMWK, MFA, DOE, DOS, SPEC and numerous other organizations.
In 2023, the CEP was a proud partner of the German Ambassador’s German Unity Day Celebrations in Washington, D.C. and actively contributed to the event’s focus topic of clean tech.
With almost 200 participants, the first ever bilateral US-German conference on hydrogen was a pronounced success. It focused particularly on the opportunities of trade in clean hydrogen and hydrogen related goods an technologies.
After first being announced by President Biden and then-chancellor Merkel in 2021, the CEP was officially launched by John Kerry and Robert Habeck in 2022.
Germany’s selection as ‚spotlight country’ at this year’s RE+ - North America’s biggest renewable energy conference – offered the ideal opportunity for a variety of CEP activities.
