WindPower Summit APAC

Almost a year ago I started my engagement as Official Representative Singapore for Hamburg Messe und Congress (HMC). The task was to bring more visitors to the exhibitions and congresses in Hamburg, especially the two worldwide leading events for maritime, SMM Hamburg, and for wind energy, WindEnergy Hamburg.

Much has happened since then and the work expanded greatly. On the one hand we have additional exciting events in Hamburg, like for the future of ports, all about ports, and the future of security and defence, Global Security and Innovation Summit | GSIS.

On the other hand we are now bringing WindEnergy to Singapore to create a WindEnergy APAC event for the global industry. We will start this year 19 + 20 May 2026, Wind Power Summit Asia-Pacific, https://lnkd.in/ggebP462. HMC is arranging the exhibition together with our local partner, Messe Berlin Asia Pacific, and our partner DN Media Group is organising the two day conference. Next year we will organise it again in Singapore and thereafter alternating with WindEnergy Hamburg.

We already have 27+ exhibitors and 32+ speakers, including Singapore Minister-in-charge of Energy and Science & Technology, Tan See Leng. The event focuses on bringing the wind industry forward in APAC. With a diverse economical and regulatory landscape in the different APAC countries the wind industry for the region is shortly before an infliction point for future rapid adoption and growth. So it is the right time to participate and be part of the long-term development, https://lnkd.in/gRu56a28. Thank you very much for their support to Energy Market Authority (EMA), Enterprise Singapore and Singapore Tourism Board.

Get Started Now

The Green Hydrogen Hub Viet Nam at the Vietnamese-German University is a world-class example for the development of the green economy and people in developing countries.

This is a showcase I shared during a roundtable at the Hamburg Sustainability Conference.

* Outside Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, there is the Vietnamese-German University (VGU).
* The university has 2,800 students and the courses take 4 years. It is specialised on engineering, finance, supply chain addressing the high demand and good prospects in these areas.

* GIZ Energy Support Programme - Viet Nam has initiated a programme for the Green Hydrogen Hub Vietnam at the VGU.
* The objectives of the hub are to develop the green hydrogen ecosystem in Vietnam with this centre of excellence for developing skilled workforce, by being a demonstration platform to showcase gH2 technology and by connecting stakeholders.
* Indefol GmbH Group, Siemens, ENERTRAG and TÜV SÜD are some of the founding members. More members from the green hydrogen ecosystem are welcome.
* This hub is an excellent initiative to support the work of the VGU for teaching a skilled workforce. It offers real-life projects and technology experience and connects the students with companies and future employers.
* For example Indefol so far has already taken in two batches of 4 paid intern for 2-6 months and has employed 3 students after they have finished their studies.
* Besides the expertise they are studying other advantages employing the students are that they are good in English and can bridge the knowledge between engineering and commercial aspects.
* Different members of the hub plan to take in more students.

This is a #lighthouseproject of development work. It would be great if similar could be reached - by development institutions and universities - for many other developing countries which also have the potential of renewable energy and people.
