Partnerships with Purpose: Driving Renewable Progress

In 2024, ContourGlobal joined SolarPower Europe (SPE), the leading EU-level solar industry association, reinforcing its commitment to clean electrification and sustainable growth. The partnership was highlighted by a visit to SPE’s booth at Intersolar 2024, Europe’s premier solar trade fair.

ContourGlobal has also become part of Battery Storage Europe, a new SPE platform focused on strengthening the business case and regulatory environment for battery storage across the EU. Acting as a dedicated voice for the sector, the platform works with EU policymakers to shape legislation, trade, and investment frameworks, while promoting stronger integration of storage and flexibility into Europe’s energy system.

In June 2024, during WindEurope’s Annual General Assembly in Brussels, ContourGlobal officially became a member of the association, reinforcing its role in Europe’s renewable energy dialogue.

WindEurope is the continent’s leading wind energy association, bringing together the full value chain — from turbine manufacturers and project developers to service providers and technology suppliers. From its base in Brussels, it helps shape policy, drive research, provide market insights, and advocate for faster deployment of wind power across Europe.

Since 2014, ContourGlobal has been a member of IG Windkraft, Austria’s leading wind energy association. Representing about 95% of the country’s installed capacity, IG Windkraft unites turbine manufacturers, operators, and service providers to strengthen the role of wind power in Austria and across Europe.

Beyond advocacy with policymakers and energy suppliers, IG Windkraft offers knowledge-sharing, networking, and public engagement initiatives — reinforcing a broad commitment to advancing renewable energy.

As part of our commitment to supporting the energy transition at both international and national levels, ContourGlobal has recently become a member of Elettricità Futura, the main association representing Italy’s electricity sector. Bringing together over 70% of the national electricity market, Elettricità Futura plays a key role in promoting the development of a more sustainable, secure, and competitive energy system. Our membership allows us to actively contribute to the industrial dialogue in Italy, engage with policymakers, and collaborate with other major players in the sector to advance shared goals in innovation, decarbonisation, and long-term energy resilience.

ContourGlobal has become a member of Protermosolar, Spain’s leading Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) association. Representing over 45 companies across the full CSP value chain and a founding member of ESTELA, Protermosolar drives the development of CSP in Spain and internationally.

Through this partnership, ContourGlobal supports efforts to strengthen regulatory frameworks, foster collaboration with institutions and research centers, and highlight the economic and environmental value of CSP as a key technology in the fight against climate change.

APSTE is a non‑profit organisation advocating for a sustainable, lowcarbon‑, and secure energy system through policy advocacy, regulatory coordination, and support for corporate power purchase agreements, energy storage technologies, and green electricity trading.

BGWEA represents the bulk of Bulgaria’s wind-energy sector, uniting wind-energy producers, developers, technical and financial consultants, and law firms. The association works to strengthen legislative and regulatory frameworks, promote wind research, and support public engagement for clean energy.

BPVA brings together over 400 companies across the solar photovoltaic value chain—including panel manufacturers, installers, project developers, investors and consultancies. Its mission is to promote a sustainable and modern energy sector aligned with European standards via engagement with national institutions and international organisations.
