ECOMONDO AND KEY ENERGY 2022: TIME FOR GREEN INNOVATION

The two Italian Exhibition Group events dedicated to Green Technologies
will be back at Rimini Expo Centre from 8th to 11th November

• The 25th Ecomondo, Europe's reference platform for the circular and green economy's technological innovation market

• The 15th Key Energy, central to accelerating energy source diversification in Italy. Focus on hydrogen, urban regeneration and energy efficiency

Rimini, 11 April 2022 – Now is the time to share the innovation potential that the Green Economy is offering Italy. Current events have made the need to free the country's system from fossil fuels even more evident. And Italian Exhibition Group's events, Ecomondo and Key Energy, to be held at Rimini Expo Centre from 8th to 11th November 2022, will focus respectively on Italy's ecological and energy transition.
Occupying over 100,000 square metres of the entire Expo Centre, the two shows are authoritative business and research platforms, where public and private companies, local administrations and the scientific world are the main players.

This year, the 25th edition of Ecomondo will take place in the European context of the Green Deal and the Next Generation EU, while the simultaneous Key Energy, at its 15th edition, will complete the picture of the European economic policy for decarbonisation. The circular bio-economy and renewable energy sectors are demanding a greater sharing of the European strategic plans that guide the ecological and energy transition: projects and public policies that will put 1,000 billion euros of public and private investment into circulation up until 2030.

Instead, from 28th to 30th June, Rimini's Palacongressi will host WWEC - World Wide Energy Conference, held by WWEA (World Wind Energy Association).
