All-Energy '08, at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre on May 21-22, will look at EU renewable energy targets; important moves for microgeneration and heat and progress on the Glendoe hydro project.
The exhibition showcases products and services vital to the rapidly expanding renewable energy industry; and the conference puts all sources of renewable energy and the challenges and opportunities facing the industry in the spotlight.
This year's event, the eighth in the annual series, will be by far the largest ever; with the expectation that the 2007 figures of 4,000 participants from 50 countries and 350 exhibiting companies being comfortably exceeded.
Project Director, Judith Patten of Media Generation Events, said: "It's certainly a far cry from the very first event held in 2001. Then a small group helped plan the event that attracted 50 exhibiting companies and 350 attendees.
"What was exceptional though, was the enthusiasm engendered by what was then an embryonic industry. That enthusiasm has been retained, and, seven years later, the industry has grown beyond all recognition at home and overseas, and it is for this global market that All-Energy caters."
The 2008 exhibition is larger than ever before, with some 3300m2 booked by exhibitors from all over the UK and from Austria, Canada, Denmark, Flanders, Germany, Ireland, Norway, Spain, and the USA - some on large national pavilions and others exhibiting as individual companies.
