The implementation of innovative eco technologies is of key importance for the countries of the South-East European Region. They have already stepped on the road of the sustainable growth but a lot of investments should be made in energy and waste management sectors for their further development.
The forthcoming edition of the South-East European Eco Forum & Exhibition will gather experts and managers from whole Europe and will give them an ideal opportunity to explore the regional market and find new business partners. The Organizer Via Expo has broadened the scope of the event and the 2013 edition, which will be held from 29th until 31st May in Sofia, Bulgaria, will span across: energy efficiency, renewable energy, waste management, smart buildings and elevators. The strong international presence of well-known companies clearly demonstrates the interest in the Region. 47% of the total number of the participants are foreign companies from 17 countries.
The Austrian environmental know-how will be in focus due to the remarkable achievements of the country. At present, the national eco-industry generates annual revenues of EUR 10.6 billion and employs a workforce of about 87,000 people.
Currently the share of renewable energy in Austria's total electricity consumption is 68%, by 2020 it will increase to 85% and this makes Austria the frontrunner in Europe.
The report ‘Screening of Waste Management performance of EU Member States' graded the 27 Member countries according to 18 criteria. Austria is in top 3 in the EU Waste Management Medal Table. |
