Welcome to World Bioenergy 29 - 31 May 2012!

World Bioenergy is the world's leading bioenergy event for decision makers and researchers in bioenergy. By showing you the good examples, letting you talk to operators of commercial plants, take part in our international business forum or update yourself on the latest research, World Bioenergy provides the tools you need. We will show you what works and help you find qualified, suitable partners as well as suppliers and customers.

Building on previous successes World Pellets 2012 is also an integrated part of World Bioenergy, which will give you excellent opportunities to network across borders. It will feature the whole production chain – raw materials, production, and end use – as well as certification, standardisation, trade and market development.

World Bioenergy is featuring:

At World Bioenergy 2010 some 200 companies exhibited their products and services at the fair. In addition 880 prescheduled business meetings were arranged. The World Bioenergy trade fair is focusing on the biomass-to-energy sector with both a traditional indoor exhibition and one large outdoor area, where bioenergy machinery is demonstrated in action.

The exhibitors are leading suppliers of products, technology and services to the entire bioenergy sector. There are also trade associations, embassies and government bodies, who want to get into contact with potential business partners. The trade fair has grown in size each year since the start, and this year will be no exception. Welcome to book your stand at the exhibition!
