Smart. The concept for your trade fair success.

A value-adding exhibition concept

Energy is divided into four keynote categories. This ensures that your potential customers and partners can fi nd your stand quickly.

Energy generation and supplyThe perfect marketplace for providers in centralized/decentralized energy generation and supply. Here you can present your energy-effi cient solutions to representatives from industry, trade and commerce, the public sector and government. Showcase everything from fuel cells and all-inclusive contracting packages to the latest advances in energy supply and storage.

Energy transmission and distributionThe central platform for specialist suppliers of cabling, transformers, switchgear, power supply, measuring equipment and instrumentation, network management and components. Position your-self alongside the world’s leading specialists in electric energy technology.

Power plant construction (conventional and renewable energy)Whether oil, gas, coal, power to gas, offshore wind parks, solar energy/solar thermal energy, biomass or biogas, geothermal or hydroelectric power – the demand for effi cient energy production has grown dramatically. The products and solutions on display in this category reach an inter-national audience of decision-makers and investors.

Synergies a success factor

At Energy exhibitors will benefi t from the synergies resulting from the content and proximity of the 11 trade fairs that make up HANNOVER MESSE 2013. This setting facilitates discussions and face-to-face encounters with your user industries and other energy-related sectors – as, for example, at the trade fairs MobiliTec and Wind.

The trade fair Wind in Hall 27 Located next to Energy, Wind will once again be staged as a trade fair in its own right.
