FfE-Energietage 2025 in Munich: Resilient Transformation in Times of Global Turbulence

Munich, March 11, 2025 – The FfE invites you to the 30th FfE-Energietage in Munich: From May 13 to 15, 2025, the Forschungsstelle für Energiewirtschaft e. V. (FfE) will host the 30th FfE-Energietage at Residenz in Munich. This renowned event brings together leading experts from industry, academia, and politics to discuss one central question:

How can we achieve a resilient transformation of the energy system in the face of global challenges?

May 13, 2025 – Industry Day: “Transformation in Challenging Times”

The FfE-Energietage will kick off with Industry Day, organized in collaboration with vbw – Association of Bavarian Industry (Vereinigung der Bayerischen Wirtschaft e. V.). Against the backdrop of economic uncertainties, the focus will be on strategies, technologies, and political frameworks that enable a competitive and climate-neutral economy. In addition to keynote speeches and panel discussions, this event offers a first-class networking platform for decision-makers from industry and politics.

May 14 & 15, 2025 – FfE Expert Conference: “Resilient Transformation in Times of Global Turbulence”

The traditional FfE Expert Conference has become one of the most important gatherings in the energy sector, where scientific insights meet practical energy solutions. High-level keynote speeches and discussions will address a range of pressing topics, including:

• Germany’s and Europe’s Transformation in a Global Context:
  What impact do global political developments have on Germany’s transformation? What role can and must Europe play?
• Planning under Changing Conditions:
  What role do target scenarios play when necessary implementation rates are not achieved? Will trend scenarios become the new basis for investment decisions?
• Shifting Public Discourse:
  How can society be engaged and supported on the path to climate neutrality?
• Cost Efficiency and Financing:
  What approaches exist to achieve climate neutrality more cost-effectively? What is the financing gap, and how can it be closed?
• Molecules as Key Partners in the Energy Transition:
  Is the hydrogen ramp-up stalling before it has truly begun? Why must we address carbon management today? Which business models are already viable?
• Unlocking Flexibility:
  Great potential but little realization — what must happen now to deploy existing flexibilities for system benefit and make new business models successful?
• Market Design:
  What market design reforms are needed to increase efficiency, trigger essential investments, and safeguard supply security?

These topics will provide participants with valuable orientation on current challenges and solutions for the energy sector.
