Powerful plenary line-up at All-Energy 2012

Alex Salmond MSP, the First Minister of Scotland has joined the line-up for the opening plenary conference session at All-Energy 2012.

Alex Salmond MSP, the First Minister of Scotland, is seen with Edinburgh based Aquamarine Power’s Oyster 800 hydro-electric wave energy converter.

The UK’s largest renewable energy exhibition and conference is being held Wednesday 23 and Thursday 24 May at Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre (AECC), with some 580 companies from up to 20 countries exhibiting.

The new features include three new zones within the show; Offshore Maintenance, where offshore wind meets oil and gas; Smart Energy (the All-Energy take on energy efficiency, energy management, micro- and onsite generation); and the Low Carbon Vehicle area, powered by ITM Power’s HFuel Here hydrogen refuelling system, complete with a ‘Ride and Drive’ circuit. Both the Offshore Maintenance and Smart Energy zones feature dedicated seminar areas.

Eleven sector specific trails are another new feature for the show, designed to help visitors find their way around, and to ensure exhibitors see footfall on their stand from relevant buyers/visitors.

For the first time, All-Energy has been selected as the venue for one of The Crown Estate’s UK offshore wind supply chain seminars. The full afternoon session on Thursday 24 May is organised by them with the Scottish Government, Scottish Enterprise and Highlands and Islands Enterprise.

All elements of All-Energy are free to attend for all with a business/professional interest in renewable and sustainable energy.
