Iker Chasco (Enercluster): “CITE is the meeting point for decision-makers in the renewable industry”
The International Congress of the Industry for the Energy Transition (CITE) is not just another congress. This biennial event has become the benchmark event where leaders of the renewable sector meet to discuss the present and future of the industry.
«Here it is the CEOs and general managers who share their vision and take the floor, which gives our event a credibility and a distinctive value that is very hard to find at other congresses,» says Iker Chasco, Managing Director of Enercluster, the organiser of CITE.
Unlike other events focused on a single technology, CITE takes a global, cross-cutting view of the energy transition. «We don’t talk about solar, wind, storage or green hydrogen in isolation, but about a complete system that needs synergies to move forward. That integrated view is what makes the networking so much richer,» Chasco stresses.
A CONGRESS WITH INTERNATIONAL REACH
This year’s edition also strengthens its international character with a first-class programme (available HERE) and strong institutional backing led by the Minister of Industry and Tourism, Jordi Hereu, together with the CEOs of some of the most relevant companies worldwide. In the words of Enercluster’s Managing Director: «CITE is the meeting point for those who are really driving the energy transition.»
Iker Chasco recalls that Navarre has a pioneering renewable energy ecosystem, built over more than three decades of innovation and talent. «Today renewables are the third-largest contributor to regional GDP, and 68% of the electricity we consume comes from clean sources. CITE is the ultimate expression of that commitment and that track record.»
Enercluster, for its part, is the body that brings this ecosystem together and drives CITE. «Practically the entire wind and solar value chain is represented here, along with an emerging storage and green hydrogen sector. CITE is therefore the space where we listen to each other, make decisions and move forward together,» he concludes.
