All-Energy 2011 Growing

All-Energy 2011, the UK's renewable energy exhibition and conference opens on 18th and 19th May at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre in Aberdeen. All-Energy now has over 580 exhibiting companies from 20 countries taking part. The conference has more than 280 speakers in nearly 50 sessions, and includes a welcome message from Alex Salmond MSP, the First Minister of Scotland.

A Civic Reception, Giant Networking Evening, a Careers Fair, a programme of associated events, Education Day for teachers, and four Technical Tours transform the All-Energy exhibition and conference into a highly memorable and all-embracing event. Admission to all elements of All-Energy 2011 is free of charge to all with a business/ professional interest in renewable energy.

All-Energy embraces all sources of renewable energy: wind (both on- and offshore), all forms of bioenergy, wave and tidal, hydropower, hydrogen and fuel cells, geothermal, microgeneration, and renewable heat. The conference also features sessions on carbon capture and storage, nuclear power, and maximising CO2 reduction in the water sector; as well as the myriad opportunities and challenges facing the industry such as sustainable transport; power storage; finance and funding; academic research; health and safety; skills; public perception; diversification. There are also sessions for specific groups such as communities, and farmers.

During the course of the two days Stuart Cook of Ofgem, Dr Hubert Keiber of Siemens Building Automation, Kevin Myers of the Health and Safety Executive, Dr Kerry Thomas, of the University of Oxford Institute of Advanced Technologies, Dr David Clubb of the European Environment Agency, and Simon Bourne of ITM will be delivering keynote addresses in the multi-stream conference.
