Energy Exhibitions & Conferences

Aenert news. Energy Exhibitions & Conferences
As is our tradition, we present a brief overview of upcoming energy exhibitions and conferences in the coming month, which could become an important element of the future development of global energy.
The sixth edition of InfraTech Germany will take place from 9 to 11 January 2024 at Messe Essen in North Rhine-Westphalia. In the Energy and Environment sector, visitors will be presented with comprehensive solutions for the effective organization of the energy transition, including Energy, district heating, gas and electricity supply, Environmental Protection, Energy transportation, Storage, Power grid management.
Here you will be able to get acquainted with technical achievements in terms of reducing energy consumption, for example, with “smart” meters, systems for optimizing your own energy consumption using tablets or smartphones, and economical devices for charging electric vehicles. It is important that decision makers and investors from all areas of infrastructure will be present at the exhibition.

The next Intersolar North America and Energy Storage North America 2024 will be held on January 17-19 in San Diego, USA. Participants in this event will be Contractors, Developers, Distributors, Engineers, Installers, Integrators, Manufacturers, Project Developers, Utilities and others. The event will focus on technology topics such as Components & Mounting, Tracking Systems, PV Manufacturing, Solar Heating & Cooling. More than 9,000 attendees, 500 exhibitors, and more than 125 Speakers are expected to be present here.
North America cannot boast of high values of the share of solar generation in relation to the total volume of electricity generation. For example, for the USA this level does not exceed 4%, for Mexico 7%. However, in terms of installed photovoltaic or concentrated solar capacity, the United States ranks second in the world after China and Spain, respectively. At the same time, the USA, Mexico, and southern Canada have either excellent or at least satisfactory solar resources.
In other words, solar energy in North America has significant prospects for development, based on natural resources, technological potential, practical experience and financial capabilities.

The Intersolar North America and Energy Storage North America conference will feature a series of presentations focusing on technology and market developments in solar energy, storage, clean energy system integration and electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The conference will feature several seminars, including NEC, PV, Energy Storage and Interconnections Inspecting PV, Powering Long-Duration Energy Storage: Creating Capacity for a Flexible Energy Future, Sizing, Programming & Troubleshooting for Lithium Battery Technologies and others.

January 19 – 28, 2024 in Washington, the popular Auto Show will once again be held, where many well-known manufacturers of traditional cars and the latest electric cars will be presented. Among them, it is enough to mention only such monumental brands as Aston Martin, Bentley, Bugatti, Ferrari, Maserati, Ford, Honda, Lexus, Hyundai, Subaru, Toyota, Volvo.
In the electric vehicle sector, the main collection will be presented by Hyundai Motor Company, including IONIQ 5N, IONIQ 6, KONA Electric. IONIQ 5N combines innovative design and smart technologies, such as a new 800-volt battery system allowing ultra-fast charging and a range of up to 507 km with rear-wheel drive. This electric car can accelerate to 100 km in 5.1 seconds. in all-wheel drive version.
Undoubtedly, the world's first ultra-luxury electric super coupe, the Rolls-Royce Specter, will be of particular interest. The company is positioning it as the beginning of a new era of transition to electrification of the entire model range by 2030. The manufacturer announced the following main parameters of the Rolls-Royce Specter: Electric range - 500–530 km; Power consumption - 23.6-22.2 kWh/100km; CO2 emissions 0 g/km.
Among the hybrid vehicles at this show you can see ELANTRA Hybrid, SANTA FE Hybrid, TUCSON Hybrid, TX 550h+. Lexus has already held the world premiere of a fundamentally new mid-size crossover TX, in which the TX550h+ is a parallel hybrid with the ability to recharge the battery from the network. The overall length, width and height of the Lexus TX are 5160, 1990 and 1780 mm, respectively, and the wheelbase is 2950 mm. Production of Lexus TX is launched at the Toyota plant in Indiana (USA).
An important distinctive feature of this show is that it provides visitors with ample opportunities for direct and detailed acquaintance with some of the models. To do this, you need to visit the Hyundai test track, Nissan ev track experience, strictly ebikes.
The Renewable Fuels Association will feature the first electric vehicle at the show to run on the low-carbon fuel E85, which demonstrates the exciting potential of combining ethanol (E85) and electricity to fuel vehicles.
