WHO IS EXHIBITING AT THE SHOW? Reza Shaybani, Chairman of the British Photovoltaic Association commented: “Connecting the solar PV industry with the construction industry as a whole through an event like Energy 2015 at UK Construction Week is something the BPVA has been demanding for some time. This is an exciting opportunity for us to showcase solar photovoltaics at the heart of the construction industry as we come together as part of a national and international event.” Natalie Bennett, Leader of the Green Party,
commented: “It is important to provide consistent, predictable, long-term support for the development of the construction industry and in particular the uptake of greener and more environmentally friendly methods of building and retrofitting.” Rob Pannell, Managing Director of Zero Carbon Hub, commented: “Zero Carbon Hub is proud to support UK Construction Week. The event is an excellent opportunity to engage the wider construction and building suitability sectors. It is vital to ensure we are doing all we can to inform the industry about the benefits of energy efficiency homes and to offer individuals every chance to talk to experts and have their questions answered.” Dr Nina Skorupska, CEO at the REA
commented: “It’s a critical period for the renewables sector at the moment, with the Renewable Heat Incentive due to come to an end in April next year. As an organisation, we’ve been campaigning strongly to achieve the legislative and regulatory security the industry needs and events like Energy 2015 at UK Construction Week are a vital way of boosting that momentum, by bringing key stakeholders together to share knowledge and best practice.” UK Construction Week will provide visitors
with the opportunity to network with professionals from across the entire spectrum of the construction industry. Bringing nine different tradeshows under one roof, the event will unite more than 55,000 visitors with 1,000 exhibitors. UK Construction Week
