In the opinion of Prime Minister Manuela Schwesig (SPD), Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania must develop more into an industrial location and focus on the development and settlement of climate-friendly industries. “A historical window of time will open in the next two decades. Large parts of our economy must become climate neutral, ”said Schwesig on Wednesday at the industry congress of the chambers of industry and commerce in MV in Stralsund.
Stralsund - In the global endeavor to cope with climate change, the locations that have renewable energies would get an advantage.
"This is where the good jobs of the future will be created," said Schwesig.
Due to its high share of renewable energies, the country is in a good starting position, which must be used.
"We need an efficient, competitive and networked hydrogen economy."

The President of the Chamber of Commerce in Rostock, Klaus-Jürgen Strupp, demanded a “clear, binding commitment, shared by all departments,” to the industrial location Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania from the new state government.
The country has the chance to be a leader in future technologies.
“To do this, the results from research and development must be used even better.” The state therefore needs a new transfer structure with which companies are better supported in bringing their innovations from the idea to market success more quickly.
In addition, the public sector could also be a major customer for the local industry.
