In recent years, a thri\u00adving clean\u00adtech startup scene has deve\u00adlo\u00adped in Europe thanks to inten\u00adsive rese\u00adarch, strong inte\u00adrest from venture capi\u00adta\u00adlists and gene\u00adrous govern\u00adment funding programs. Growing energy demand, the need for grea\u00adter secu\u00adrity of supply, and rising oil and energy prices are among the key drivers of the global clean\u00adtech boom. Germany plays a major role in this development.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the after\u00admath of the nuclear acci\u00addent in Japan in spring 2011, growing skep\u00adti\u00adcism about nuclear power led Germany to initiate an energy turn\u00adaround that is unique in the world and sees rene\u00adwa\u00adble ener\u00adgies as a central compo\u00adnent of future energy supply.<\/p>\n

Clean\u00adtech is alre\u00adady a serious econo\u00admic sector in many count\u00adries and, in the eyes of some econo\u00admic experts, embo\u00addies the growth engine of the future. Inves\u00adtors can bene\u00adfit from this deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment in various ways, for exam\u00adple by inves\u00adt\u00ading in tech\u00adno\u00adlogy compa\u00adnies or infra\u00adstruc\u00adture projects in the clean\u00adtech and rene\u00adwa\u00adble energy sectors. Zouk Capi\u00adtal has been pursuing this invest\u00adment stra\u00adtegy with great success since 2004 and is one of the largest and most expe\u00adri\u00aden\u00adced clean\u00adtech inves\u00adtors in Europe. Germany has played an important role for Zouk for many years \u2014 about 40% of all Zouk port\u00adfo\u00adlio compa\u00adnies are based here. Through many years of coope\u00adra\u00adtion with German entre\u00adpre\u00adneurs, inves\u00adtors and poli\u00adti\u00adci\u00adans, we have gained deep insights into the local market, which we would now like to use to take stock of the past and future deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment of the clean\u00adtech markets and the invest\u00adment oppor\u00adtu\u00adni\u00adties for inves\u00adtors in Germany at the end of 2011.<\/p>\n

What is cleantech?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The term clean\u00adtech was coined in the late 1990s, but is now applied to a variety of diffe\u00adrent topics.
