German Green Technologies – the index of German companies
Recycling and waste management are topics that concern us and which we have actively supported through our initiatives regarding green solutions and technologies, as well as the Romanian-German cooperation in this field.
Waste management is a real challenge in Romania, a topic of intense discussion and debate for politicians and companies, given the ambitious recycling targets and related sanctions in case of non-compliance. In this context, as well as that of the Covid-19 pandemic, which further accentuated the need for urgent reforms and investments in this field, we also want to contribute to facilitating a faster exchange of know-how and technologies between representatives of Romanian and German companies.
Description of the German Green Technologies initiative – the index of German companies
The German Green Technologies Index is part of a larger project entitled “Waste management and recycling in Romania II – Solution-oriented technology transfer”, realized by AHK Romania within the “Environmental Technologies” export initiative of the German Federal Ministry of the Environment, Climate Protection and Nuclear Safety. The mentioned project complements the project “Waste Management and Recycling in Romania I” in which AHK Romania organized between September 2018 and August 2019 three regional workshops and a conference in Bucharest.
The project “Waste management and recycling in Romania II – Solution-oriented technology transfer“ was based on an analysis of the need for technology at the local level in the field of waste management. A questionnaire with several groups of questions was applied and sent to the decision makers at regional level: county councils, ADIs, County Environmental Agencies. The results from all over the country were centralized and presented in a study that is available in German.
The information thus obtained has been summarized in an information brochure (in Romanian) which we invite you to check it out here.
The results of the analysis were presented in November 2020 to potential German technology providers, in order to facilitate their entry into the Romanian market by providing relevant information. The participating German companies had the opportunity to gain more visibility on the Romanian market by listing them in the new index – German Green Technologies, dedicated to companies in the field of recycling and waste management.
