1 EUROPE S LEADING ENERGY TRADE FAIR E-WORLD ENERGY & WATER 16 TH - 18TH FEBRUARY 2016 ESSEN, GERMANY TRADE FAIR CONGRESS SMART ENERGY SIDE EVENTS

2 WELCOME Once again in 2015, the E-world energy & water witnessed record participation levels, holding a steadfast course towards success. With more than 640 exhibitors from 25 different countries and 24,000 visitors from 80 countries, the leading trade fair for the European energy sector has not only increased in size, but also in international scope. We are delighted by these ever-increasing exhibitor and visitor numbers, as this is a clear confirmation that we are reinforcing the outstanding status of the E-world. The consistently positive feedback we have received from exhibitors and visitors is equally crucial to us; particularly as these again reached record levels this year. This provides both an incentive and an obligation; to align the exhibition concept closely with the market and current industry topics, and to maintain our ambitious goals. The focus of this year s trade fair was on products and services in the fields of energy trade, information technology and above all, energy services. Many solutions were presented concerning the production and storage of renewable energy, as well as smart technologies for the efficient production and use of energy, within the framework of the topic Smart Energy. The varied and challenging framework programme of the E-world has also once again been used extensively as a basis for the lively exchange between the trade visitors. In conferences and workshops, presentation forums, seminars and at the exhibition stands, interested visitors were able to find out about current issues in the energy sector and to discuss these as well as build networks. Thanks to the broad programme, satisfaction with the high quality and the trade fair participation, more than 90 % of exhibitors and visitors stated that they would participate in the next E-world in 2016 directly after the trade fair. Take advantage of this opportunity to be part of the most important industry gathering across Europe for the energy sector! Participate on February when the E-world energy and water takes place for the 16th time in Essen. We look forward to seeing you there! Stefanie Hamm Claus-Peter Regiani
