Representatives from EdF, Engie, E.ON, Verbund, OMV, Siemens, IRENA, OSCE, SE4ALL, Nordic Energy Research, as well as other stakeholders from the Austrian energy industry participated in the event.

Béatrice Buffon (Vice Chair Europe, World Energy Council) and Dr. Jürgen Schneider (Directorate General VI, Federal Ministry for Climate Protection and Energy) made valuable contributions and discussed with national and international experts key issues of European energy supply such as:

• How well has Europe weathered the energy crisis and the uncertain winter?
• What are the lessons learned and what were the implications for the energy system?
• Is Europe prepared for the next winter?
