Power Industry Professionals To Gather In Dubai For MEE 2019
Power industry professionals from around the world will gather in Dubai tomorrow for Middle East Electricity 2019, MEE, the 44th edition of the region’s leading event for the power industry.
The participants are exhibiting, visiting, and speaking at conferences and workshops at the three-day Middle East Electricity event, which runs until 7th March, at the Dubai World Trade Centre, DWTC.
"From smart grids to bifacial solar panels and everything from generation to transmission, distribution and all touch points in between that are re-energising and recalibrating a sector on the tipping point of total transformation - MEE 2019 has it all," explained Claudia Konieczna, Exhibition Director of Informa Industrial Group, which organises MEE.
Across all five of Middle East Electricity 2019’s dedicated sectors - power generation, transmission and distribution, lighting, solar, and energy storage and management - disruptive forces will be in evidence as supply markets transform, technologies progress, industries converge, consumption patterns alter, environmental concerns grow and ‘prosumers’ – the new power consumer/producer – gain momentum.
"The industry is focused on discovering new business practices and technologies to address pressing issues of rising power demand, the need to control critical power costs and hasten the adoption of renewables to progress more sustainable business models. Every aspect of the change scenario is being explored at the exhibition and throughout its expansive knowledge programme - the outputs will be agenda-setting for the industry’s future," added Konieczna.
The comprehensive MEE knowledge programme, which offers up to 94 hours of free educational events, includes a diverse range of professional education and training opportunities where attendees can learn about the latest technologies at exhibitor-led Technical Seminars and advance professionally with CPD accredited conferences Boosting the programme this year is the pioneering, opening day conference focusing on Internet of Things, IoT, lighting – the first of its kind in the region – when experts from the Middle East, South America, Europe, India and the USA will probe the possible advances from leveraging IoT within the lighting sector and its ability to transform lifestyles.
Additional conferences include; Intersolar, Electrical Energy Storage and the two-day ‘Revolutionising Power Generation’ agenda. Speakers from 10 nations are lined up for the highlight power generation platform, which puts operations and maintenance of large-scale utilities, as well as independent power producers, into sharp focus.
