Mission & Goals
The vgbe energy e.V. is the technical association of energy plant operators. Our members are companies that operate worldwide facilities for the generation of power, heat and cooling as well as for energy storage and sector coupling. We are committed to the goal of developing the economy and society in a climate-neutral and sustainable way. Our contribution is to show and to actively shape the way towards an environmentally friendly, secure and economical energy supply system. As an independent technical competence centre and network, we support our members in their operational business as well as in the implementation of innovations and strategic challenges. We are the voice of the operators, getting actively involved in the political and social debate on technical issues, using facts as our basis. Co-operation with all partners along the energy value chain, especially with manufacturers and service providers, is very important to us.
