West Coast, an independent group of companies based in North
Wales which is active in a wide range of renewable energy sectors
and at all scales, is sponsoring a series of public events in Wales
this year to promote renewable energy, advise local communities and
businesses about their options, and meet growing demands for
information.
"The publication of the Westminster Government's energy market
reform white paper, and news of more energy price hikes, have put
the question of where energy of the future will come from right at
the top of everyone's agenda," says Gerry Jewson of West Coast.
"People need as much information as possible and we are pleased to
support events where all enterprises and organisations involved in
renewable energy can share their knowledge."
Events arranged to advise and inform local businesses are
attracting growing audiences across Wales. The Green Power Forum
held in June to share best practice in renewable technology
attracted more than 100 public and private sector professionals who
are committed to driving down carbon emissions. Exhibiting
companies outlined the commercial case for going green and offered
guidance to business owners on how to meet government-set
targets.
Events on the 2011 agenda that are supported by West Coast
include:
The Wales
Business Insider Energy Forum (12 July)
A debate where members of the audience asked a panel of industry
professionals, including West Coast Energy's Planning and
Development Director, questions about renewable energy.
Anglesey Agricultural
Show (9-10 August)
The Anglesey Agricultural Show is one of Wales' premier events that
attracts hundreds of exhibitors, including energy developers. Last
year over 60,000 people attended the show across the two days.
The Low Carbon Expo (16-17
September)
A national exhibition hosted in Cardiff showcasing the leading
providers of energy-saving products. It explores ways to easily
adopt sustainable activities to benefit the environment while
saving money.
