What does the future of energy look like? From decentralized energy solutions to big data and blockchain, the E.ON Energy Innovation Days (5 to 7 October 2021) will see more than 70 leading international experts to take the virtual stage to discuss how innovation drives the energy transition.
E.ON Energy Innovation Days
The event has developed into an important forum for dialogue on energy innovation
Energy Innovation Days are the largest European virtual event for energy innovators and thought leaders. It offers interested parties the chance to participate and interact across more than 30 sessions. E.ON expects over 10,000 participants from industry, research, and politics.
E.ON Energy Innovation Days are being held for the fourth time in 2021. Since its premiere, the event has developed into an important forum for dialogue on energy innovation between key players and experts worldwide.
The focus is on the exchange of ideas and concrete solutions for the path to a CO2-neutral, digital and decentralized energy future.

Leonhard Birnbaum, CEO of E.ON, “The energy transition is an enormous challenge and one of the central tasks of our time. We will only be successful if we focus on innovations and courageous partnerships – at all levels of society and across corporate boundaries. Here at E.ON, we want to be pioneers and drivers of this change."
Leonhard Birnbaum adds, "E.ON Energy Innovation Days is a meeting place for everyone who wants to shape the future energy world together.”
Electrification, Connectivity, and Digitalisation
Each of the three conference days focuses on a particular pillar of the energy transition
Each of the three conference days focuses on a particular pillar of the energy transition: Electrification, Connectivity, and Digitalisation: Are we heading toward the end of the central energy markets? Where will the green hydrogen for our future energy supply come from?
And what can quantum computers already do to advance the energy transition today? Experts and participants will explore these issues together.
Speakers
In addition to members of the E.ON Board of Management, the speakers include leading industry experts from Google, Sony, Eurelectric, the European Energy Exchange, NEOM, RWTH Aachen University, Ludwig Maximilian University Munich, and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
In 2021, for the first time, the interactive platform “Republic of Innovators” will serve as the virtual venue. Recently launched by E.ON, the “Republic of Innovators” is a community space for the energy innovation industry to connect and exchange ideas.
Apart from the sessions, innovative companies and projects will present themselves here. There will also be numerous networking opportunities for speakers and participants.
