Puerto Rico & Bahamas: Centralized energy solutions

On October 12, 2017, we held an information event in cooperation with the : German American Chamber of Commerce of the Southern US, Inc. on the topic of "Decentralized energy supply with renewable energies for Puerto Rico and the Bahamas".

The participating German company representatives received first-hand information on market entry opportunities in Puerto Rico and the Bahamas. In addition, experts provided information on the legal framework and financing options. The event included a video call  to a Puerto Rico expert, located in the U.S. The expert gave a presentation on the current challenges and was available to answer the participants questions afterwards.
