The Platform

In the German-Polish Energy Platform, dena and KAPE are working together on projects to promote the energy transition in both countries and in the border region.

The energy agencies of both countries are pooling their expertise and networks in order to facilitate the exchange of experience on topics of common interest and to develop cross-border projects in cooperation with cities and companies in both countries. The aim is to promote understanding of the respective implementation of the energy transition between Poland and Germany through concrete cooperation on common challenges and to create a common approach on the path to climate neutrality.
