Since the Great East Japan Earthquake and the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant disaster, the attitude towards renewable energy has changed dramatically in Japan. An increasing number of people are willing to switch from nuclear to renewable sources such as Photovoltaic and Wind energy.
Currently Japan’s market potential in the wind sector is around 3.6 billion JPY (2012), but according to the statistics it is estimated to increase to 12.9 billion JPY by 2015. With the new feed-in tariff going into effect from July 2012 and as the interest to invest in wind energy is on the rise, Reed Exhibitions Japan has decided to launch an exhibition dedicated to the wind sector parallel to the other 7 renewable/smart energy related exhibitions listed above.
In fact, as the organiser of one of the world’s leading renewable/smart energy event there have been questions and requests by numerous participants of World Smart Energy Week in the past about the opening of an exhibition specialised in wind energy. Therefore, Reed Exhibitions Japan strongly believes that WIND EXPO 2013 will be valued by many present and prospective participants of World Smart Energy Week and will expand opportunities and form a greater business platform for the renewable energy industry.
Opening Presentation/Briefing
An opening presentation/briefing for WIND EXPO 2013 will be held on June 11, 2012 from 2pm at Shinbashi Dai-ichi Hotel, Tokyo. The plan for the next 5 years will be revealed and many industry professionals from the industry (such as wind turbine manufacturers and wind energy generating system manufacturers) hoping to participate in WIND EXPO 2013 will present their thoughts on what to expect from the new exhibition. The event will be a perfect opportunity to learn and catch up with the latest renewable energy related products and information.
