RENEXPO® SOUTH-EAST EUROPE, Romania's largest and most important renewable energy and energy efficiency event, comes back with the 5th edition to the Palace Hall Bucharest, between the 21st - 23rd of November 2012. Since 2008 the event became known as one of the biggest energy platforms in the South-East European region and a meeting point in the capital of Romania for key players and experts.

Renewable energy producers in Romania are supported through a support scheme worth of 10.8

billion euro for the next 10 years. This is one of the most generous EU support scheme, as the officials
of the Economy Ministry admit. According to the scheme, producers receive green certificates which
they sell on a specialized market, the price of one certificate being valued between 27 and 55 euro.
Investors in wind power will receive 2 certificates until 2017 and afterwards one. Photovoltaic
producers receive 6 certificates and those who produce energy from biomass receive 2 certificates,
with the exception of those from energy crops that receive 3 certificates. (www.adevarul.ro)

Romania has become a target country and has increased the interest of renewable energy investors,
according to the Country Attractiveness Indices report, released in November 2011 by Ernst & Young,
it ranks 13 among the most attractive countries in the world regarding investments in this area.
Investors who will succeed to implement until 31st of December 2012 their renewable energy projects,
will receive a number of green certificates as required by law. Thus, according to Transelectrica,
renewable energy producers have received in the first 2 months of this year 438.551 green
certificates, their value amounting to 46,1 million euro.

According to Transelectrica, Romania has photovoltaic parks with a capacity of only 2 MW, and in the
