On 19.10.2021 the annual event of the Vorzeigeregion Energie with the motto “Fit For 55 Made in Austria” took place in Graz. After the welcome with Climate and Energy Fund Managing Director Theresia Vogel, as well as a statement by Federal Minister Leonore Gewessler on the topic “Big Picture – Solutions for Climate Protection – Made in Austria”, many exciting contributions from the three regions were presented.

In this context, the flagship project ThermaFLEX led by AEE INTEC under the umbrella of the Green Energy Lab was highlighted as a role model. In the panel discussion “The Top 5 – Failures, Challenges & KeyTakeAways”, ThermaFLEX partners Ulrike Rabmer-Koller (Managing Director Rabmer GreenTech GmbH) and Werner Pink (Managing Director Pink GmbH) provided insights on the results achieved and experiences gained in the project.
