Representatives of Sevivon, PNE AG took part in two events where the issue of energy transformation of rural areas was discussed. The occasion was the "Fields of Power" conference organized in Pomerania, as well as the 38th General Assembly of the Union of Rural Municipalities of Poland, held in Warsaw.
On June 20, the "Fields of Power" conference was held in the charming castle in Gniew. The event was an opportunity to discuss efforts to decarbonize agricultural production in our country. Experts, representing this segment of the economy, pointed to the important role of agriculture in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, which include carbon dioxide and methane. A lot of space during the debates was devoted to the issue of increasing the use of technologies to reduce the consumption of energy, raw materials and inputs. In this context, the need for further development of photovoltaics, wind power or energy storage was pointed out. There was no shortage of voices promoting the creation of so-called energy cooperatives, the establishment of which would certainly accelerate the process of the necessary transformation of agriculture in Poland. Among the speakers at the conference were agricultural producers, academics, as well as representatives of companies offering renewable energy systems and providing renewable energy management services.
