Background

About Patrick Clerens

I am the managing director of CLERENS since 2003 and in my capacity as Brussels Representative of different European associations, I have been involved in the climate and energy field ever since. In addition to my position as Managing Director in CLERENS, I am also working as Secretary General of 2 Brussels based associations in the energy sector: Energy Storage Europe and the European Suppliers of Waste-to-Energy Technologies (ESWET). I have extensive knowledge in advising European industry federations and other multinational clients in their strategy as regards to energy and electrical transmissions, environment and climate change, in participation in European funded projects (e.g. poverty alleviation) inclusive finding of partners and writing of proposals and in participation in public procurements including follow-up and intervention if the call did not follow EU requirements as well as representing clients in complete event organisations for lobbying or communications purposes.
