BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE ORGANISATION

ELETAEN is the association of the scientists, professionals and the companies acting in wind energy in Greece. It has been a member of the European Wind Energy Association WindEurope since its founding.
HWEA/ ELETAEN maintains and serves a twofold scope:
-it seeks to promote the scientific research, technology, and applications of wind energy and at the same time
-tries to effectively express the well-meant interests of the industry and the market by acting as a think-tank and dialogue forum with scientific documentation and competence.
Its activities include a wide range of actions i.e. advocacy, policy development, communication, training, information dissemination etc.

HOW THE ORGANISATION WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE DISSEMINATION AND EXPLOITATION OF THE PROJECT RESULTS

Currently, ELETAEN has more than 240 active members from which more than 60 are legal entities, including all the major investors, operators and manufactures active in the Greek wind energy market. The total number of employees in the wind energy sector in Greece is estimated to 5.500. ELETAEN maintains strong ties and communication channels with this staff which will be definitely interested in the project’s results.
Moreover, ELETAEN has built a reputable image among the authorities, the universities, the special press and the citizens who support the energy transformation and renewables.
All the above bring ELETAEN in the position to disseminate the project results in an effective way.

In line with the key elements of the Innovation Union and the EU Higher Education Modernisation Agenda, the GrEnFIn Erasmus+/Knowledge Alliance project aims to provide the Energy Sector's stakeholders (energy providers, private companies, research institutes) the figure of the Sustainable Energy experts professional, i.e. European high skilled professionals capable to face the changing challenges in the field with an inclusive global logic. Its main expected results are the development of an innovative Joint Master Degree in the Green Energy and Finance targeting young students, but also a Professional Module to train companies' staff and experts already active in the labor market.
