Post Event Report

TESTIMONIALS Excellent organization, interesting lecturers and very attractive exhibition. Bojan Kovacic, Serbian Energy Agency The congress was very successful, well organized with good speakers and audience. Viki Georgakopoulou, Greek Ministry of Development Impressive number of participants at the Congress and Exhibition! Alexander Zachariou, Solar Cells Hellas, Greece Thank you for the perfect event. Dean Marcelja, ECRE Guessing, Austria Through the exhibition we succeeded to present our products to the clients by the best possible way. There was very big media interest due to which the forum attracted big number of highly specialized experts and businessmen. The event was extremely good organized in details so that to make both the exhibitors and visitors feel comfortable. Sevatech SWT, Bulgaria

Very good organization. We will take part in 2010 again! Amandus Kahl, Germany The exhibition organization was perfect. I do believe we will work in the future again! Mila Babacheva, American Way, Bulgaria As a tradition the Congress strategic partner is Germany. The congress as well as the exhibition have covered all types of renewable energy, so this event is a major step in promoting alternative sources of energy. All exhibitors at the German pavilion benefited from the huge interest this event created. For sure, we will come back next year Torsten Fuhrberg, MCO GmbH, Germany

The contacts we had were very concrete. We got many inquiries from Municipalities (for district heating plants working with biomass) and Technical Agency’s. So we were satisfied with the quality of the visitors. Thomas Hofmann, POLYTECHNIK GmbH, Austria This year the country of focus was Austria. Active part for recruiting Austrian participants took the Austrian Energy Agency and the Austrian trade section to the embassy in Bulgaria. Mr Angerer – the Commercial Counsellor at the Austrian Embassy in Sofia said “I am pleased to tell you that the comments were very good. The Austrian companies appreciated that the EE & RES exhibition was specialized and attracted only visitors with concrete interest in these topics. I was positively mentioned as well that the fair was relatively short – 3 days – and therefore not so time consuming. We believe that we will be able to attract more Austrian participants for the next fair scheduled for April 2010.”

EE & RES is developing better and better in this part of Europe, even in a year of crisis. The strategic partnership with the more advanced EU member states, particularly with Germany, and the know-how transfer helps a lot to accelerate the EE & RES development in South-East Europe. The Congress efforts to network the experts gives its first positive results and we are happy for the foundation of the EE & RES Federation for SE Europe in 2009. The unification will help the Region to move faster forward. Energy Efficiency needs an improvement in all South-East European countries and Solar, Wind, Bio and Geo are trendy already in all of them. V.P. Koch, Gate East, Germany

T

he main conclusion of the 5th Congress was that the Region of South-East Europe is too much behind the rest of Europe concerning the development of EE & RES market. So the governmental authorities, public sector and the business must be more active for creating new business opportunities and smart energy consumption, new high tech jobs and new level of the education. The participants hope the next years will be the time of Eco-Tech expansion in South-East Europe.
