organization

The establishment goes back to the year 1990. On January 1, 2007, the Energy Agency NRW was merged with the State Initiative for Future Energies under the name EnergyAgentur.NRW. As a result of the merger, the range of tasks at EA.NRW has expanded. The EA.NRW was renamed the EnergieAgentur.NRW GmbH on February 7th, 2008. The shareholders of the GmbH are Agiplan GmbH and Ee Energy Engineers GmbH. The Agiplan GmbH acts with its subsidiary Prisma Consult GmbH.

Until 2010, the company was assigned to the Ministry of Economics, SMEs and Energy of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia . During the black-yellow coalition 2005-2010 Christa Thoben was Minister of Economic Affairs. After the NRW state elections on May 9, 2010 , the SPD and the Greens agreed in their coalition agreement that the Ministry for Climate Protection, Environment, Agriculture, Nature and Consumer Protection of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia would take responsibility for the Energy Agency NRW. The minister responsible was Johannes Remmel . With the black and yellow state government since June 30, 2017, responsibility for the Energy Agency NRW lies with the Ministry for Economics, Innovation, Digitization and Energy of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia . The responsible minister is Andreas Pinkwart from the FDP.

Fields of work

She also coordinates projects at research institutions, universities and schools in the state. The company is funded by the European Regional Development Fund and is a regional partner of the German Energy Agency and KfW .

The work covers a wide range of topics in the field of energy technology and energy management, aimed at companies, municipalities and citizens. In a 2014 study by DIW, the company was awarded first place among the state energy agencies in Germany. The reasons given were the broad range of tasks and target group focus. In addition to the typical tasks of an energy agency such as energy advice and the creation of information offers, the company is responsible for cluster management of the networks “EnergieRegion.NRW” and energy research “CEF.NRW” as well as for foreign trade promotion.
