Europe is facing an urgent need for sizeable power generation and infrastructure investments over the next decade – an estimated one trillion euro by 2020. Will critical investments be realised in time? Can the industry keep its promise of carbon-neutral generation by 2050? What are the challenges / risks? What role do governments play? How can public acceptance be gained? These, and other questions, will be debated in a two-day EURELECTRIC conference focused on “delivering investments to meet Europe’s energy and climate needs” in Stockholm, Sweden on 13-14 June*.

Overview of Conference Sessions

Executive CEO Forum

Do Markets Still Have a Role?

The challenges confronting the industry on the path towards a low-carbon energy future are numerous, but the sector can and will deliver if the policy framework is right. Crucial in this regard is the need for a European perspective. With 27 different national approaches and systems when it comes to supporting renewable energies or CHP, with in addition a variety of national taxes and levies, and with EU ETS timescales that fail to align with long pay-back timescales for remunerating low carbon investments, the regulatory framework for large-scale investments is not encouraging. A greater European focus, greater coherence between environment and energy policy and a much more consistent market-orientation is what is urgently needed to move towards a harmonised European energy market. EURELECTRIC executives will use this occasion to debate the question “do markets still have a role?”.

Session II

Investment Prospects and Governance Issues

There is a recognised need within Europe and globally for massive investments in energy infrastructure in the next decade. However, a key challenge

for European policy-makers will be to ensure a stable and predictable regulatory regime to incentivise the needed investments in Europe – in

power generation and high voltage transmission infrastructure, storage and demand side measures. The session includes two parallel panel discussions: one on the overall investment climate and key challenges

facing the industry and one on investment in renewables and its specific challenges.

DSO Event

The Changing Picture of Distribution Networks –

The 2030 DSO Vision

The long-term vision for smart grids is clear, but turning it into reality is quite a different story. The emergence of

renewables, distributed generation and electric vehicles demand an infrastructure that actively integrates the actions of generators,

consumers and parties that do both. There are several hundred projects already under way in Europe and this “mini” EURELECTRIC

DSO event aims to provide some insight into lessons learnt and experiences gained. Smart grids clearly require smart regulation to realise their full potential, and panellists will thus focus on what policy changes

are required at EU and Member State level to prepare the European distribution grids to take on the upcoming challenges for the

benefit of customers and society as a whole.

Session I

2050 Vision: Getting from Promise to Practice

Against the background of EU and international roadmaps and strategies for a low-carbon economy by 2050, EURELECTRIC will set out the industry’s commitment to concrete actions as laid down in its 2009 CEO declaration. The theory is however being met with a number of conflicting and incoherent policies and regulation that are slowing down the process. Speakers and panellists alike will outline the need for functioning markets and strong political leadership, above all, in the move towards a low-carbon energy economy. The session will thus set the scene for debate on the main theme of the conference: appropriate governance, appropriate investment.

* Based on figures from last year’s annual conference, EURELECTRIC will offset the foreseen CO2 emissions

of its 2011 event through cooperation with the non-profit foundation “my climate”, in Switzerland.

Cities that consume 30% less energy?

Certainly.

As a leading producer of energy-efficient solutions, ABB helps deliver major power sawings, whitout compromising performance. Our lighting control systems can deliver power sawings of up to 50 percent, and our building automation up to 60 percent. While everone else is talking about energy prices, power shortages and climate change, ABB is doing something about it, right here, right now. www.abb.com/betterworld

You too can run an energy company in the future. As more electricity is generated from solar and wind, the energy grid needs to smarten up.

It must be able to handle electricity from local providers, such as yourself, as a complement

to the total production. But also automatically charge your electric car and turn on the

washing machine at the most effi cient hour. This and much more is being tested as we

speak, and soon Norra Djurgårdsstaden in Stockholm will become the world’s fi rst city

area with a built-in smart energy grid. Join us in the hunt of tomorrows energy.

Pre Conference Tour – The Stockholm Royal Seaport, the Drottningholm Palace and boat trip with lunch

A new urban district – Stockholm Royal Seaport – is developing in eastern Stockholm by the Royal National Urban Park. Here, modern architecture and environmental thinking is being combined, creating a new vibrant district for sustainable living, business and recreation. ABB, the leading power and automation technology group, will work on a joint development project with the Nordic utility Fortum to design and install a large-scale smart grid in the new district of the city of Stockholm. The R&D project will test the concept of a flexible, low-emission power network in the Stockholm Royal Seaport area as part of a larger initiative to cut emissions in the Swedish capital by two-thirds by 2020. It is one of 16 global projects supported by the Clinton Climate Initiative Program for sustainable urban growth with a focus on sustainable and efficient generation, transmission and distribution of power. The Drottningholm Palace has been the present Royal Family’s permanent residence and is on UNESCO´s World Heritage list. It is the most well-preserved royal castle built in the 1600s in Sweden and at the same time is representative of all European architecture for the period. The combination of the exotic Chinese Pavilion pleasure palace, the palace theatre and the magnificent palace gardens make a visit to Drottningholm a unique experience.Influenced by French prototype, the palace was built by architect Nicodemus Tessin the Elder by commission of Queen Hedvig Eleonora. A number of royal personages have since then left their mark on the palace.

Lunch will be served on the return to Stockholm on a boat trip through the Stockholm archipelago.Time: 08.30 - 15.00Price: 125€

Accompanying Persons Tour – Gamla stan, the old town in Stockholm, Millesgården and Svenskt Tenn

The tour starts with a guided pedestrian tour through the old town, Gamla stan, in Stockholm. Gamla Stan is one of the largest and best preserved medieval city centers in Europe, and one of the foremost attractions in Stockholm. This is where Stockholm was founded in 1252. All of Gamla Stan and the adjacent island of Riddarholmen are like a living pedestrian-friendly museum full of sights, attractions, restaurants, cafés, bars and places to shop. Gamla Stan is also popular with aficionados of handicrafts, curios and souvenirs. The narrow winding cobblestone streets, with their buildings in so many different shades of gold, give Gamla Stan its unique character. Even now cellar vaults and frescoes from the Middle Ages can be found behind the visible facades.Carl Milles is one of Sweden’s most famous scuptors. Millesgården is Carl and Olga Milles’ artist’s home on the island of Lidingö. The art gallery exhibits modern and contemporary art. Next door is Annes Hus, the couple’s home during the 1950s with intact decor from Svenskt Tenn. In the Millesgården’s sculpture park, famous works by Carl Milles are set on terraces and in fountains. The sculpture park also provides a beautiful view over Stockholm and the harbor entrance.After a nice lunch at Millesgården we’ll make a final stop at Svenskt Tenn, an interior design shop located on Strandvägen in Stockholm, Sweden. It was founded in 1924 by Estrid Ericson, who recruited Josef Frank to the company 10 years later. Together they created the elegant and boldly patterned personal interior design style that continues to pervade the collection to this day.

Time: 09.30 - 15.00 (from listed hotels)
