All-Energy, the UK's largest renewable energy show receives an industry accolade.

All-Energy, the UK's largest renewable energy exhibition and conference, has been awarded runner-up spot in the ''Advocate Award' at the British Renewable Energy Awards.

The award is for the NGO, campaign, publication or association that has done most to enhance awareness of renewables in the public and/or key opinion formers.


"We were thrilled to be short-listed and then to win runner-up spot," says Judith Patten, project director of the annual trade show held near the end of each May in Aberdeen at Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre. "It is a real feather in the cap of an exhibition and conference to be considered so much a part and parcel of the industry it serves that it gains recognition in this way, we'd like to thank the Renewable Energy Association and the panel of judges for this accolade. We were pipped at the post by Renewable Energy Systems Ltd, whose low carbon head office, Beaufort Court in Hertfordshire, with its on-site wind turbine and other forms of renewable energy, is an exemplar of renewable energy technology, made available for training, educational and promotional purpose."


The 2008 All-Energy, the eighth in the annual series, held 21-22 May, attracted 4700 participants from 61 countries, 380+ exhibitors from a dozen countries and featured some 220 speakers from home and overseas during two packed days. The show is organised by Media Generation Events Ltd in partnership with Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre. The 2009 show will be held in Aberdeen 20-21 May 2009.
