The interest in renewable energy as an important part of the future energy production remains unchanged. After the huge success of the RENEXPO® 2007 at the end of September, there is already huge interest from the exhibitors to be part of the action again in Augsburg 2008. From the 09th to 12th of October 2008 the Augsburg trade fair presents for the ninth time the complete spectrum of renewable energy and energy efficient building and renovation. The themes range from old-building renovation to heating with sun and wood, to Passive House, CHP, mobility, heat pumps, hydropower and wind energy.

One of the highlights is the IHE® HolzEnergie Germany's largest specialized trade fair for energy production from wood. The entire value-chain from wood energy as well as the latest trends and innovations from the wood energy branch will be presented in Augsburg.

The conference organized by the German Federal Association for Bioenergy (BBE) is the leading conference on wood energy in Germany and provides a comprehensive overview of the politics, economy and Best Practice. "The IHE® has been firmly established as part of the trade fair program for the wood energy sector" was the unanimous conclusion of visitors and exhibitors at the 2007 IHE®.
