07.04.2008: The 5th workshop of the International Feed-in Cooperation will take place on April, 7th and 8th (Monday and Tuesday) in Brussels http://www.feed-in-cooperation.org/
The International Feed-in Cooperation was initiated by the governments of Spain and Germany at the International Conference for Renewable Energies in Bonn in June 2004 (renewables2004) in order to promote the exchange of experiences so as to improve the feed-in system design in each country. Thereafter, a joint declaration between both governments was signed on October 6, 2005 in Madrid. Slovenia joined the cooperation on January 29, 2007. Since feed-in systems have proven to be the most effective and efficient option to promote renewable energies, the International Feed-in Cooperation aims at demonstrating the advantages of a feed-in system. In this context, the member countries intend to stimulate the enhancement of feed-in tariffs worldwide by including other countries into their information exchange process. For instance, existing knowledge and experiences gained in the three countries can serve as valuable information for other countries planning the introduction or further development of feed-in tariffs.
