The Ökopol Institute for Environmental Strategies GmbH, based in Hamburg (Germany), has been working in European environmental policy for more than 20 years. Main research fields include waste policies, product policy, chemicals regulation, regulation of industrial emissions as well as regional and corporate environmental management concepts. Concerns related to energy efficiency and climate protection form an important part of the efforts across all of these fields. Ökopol links in its work strategic and conceptional consulting activities on a rather abstract level with concrete consulting services in particular cases. Based on in-depth scientific knowledge, trustworthy cooperation, implementation of transparent process rules, and a clear position for ambitious but pragmatic environmental solutions, Ökopol has an excellent reputation across all stakeholder groups in the European environmental policy arena. The spectrum of the Institute’s clients ranges from the European Commission and the United Nations, through multinational companies and associations, to national and regional authorities, small and medium enterprises and local NGOs or training and educational institutions.
