The Energy Saving Fair, organized by Messe Wels GmbH & Co KG, is recognized as Austria's most significant industry meeting place for trade visitors and exhibitors in the construction sector. This tradeshow serves as a central hub for industry players, showcasing sustainable solutions amid challenges such as unclear subsidies in the heating sector and a slow new construction market. Dir. Robert Schneider, the Managing Director of Messe Wels, noted that there has been a positive shift in the mood, with exhibitors reporting concrete inquiries about upcoming construction and renovation projects. The event has reaffirmed its importance, evidenced by the strong turnout of trade visitors, particularly on Thursday. The fair highlights the increasing interest of private consumers in sustainable solutions, with many well-prepared visitors actively seeking information and professional advice. Gerhard Dell, the State Energy Commissioner and Managing Director of the Upper Austrian Energy Saving Association, emphasized the popularity of the energy advice street at the fair, where numerous valuable contacts and comprehensive consultations were established, leading to tangible progress in energy projects. Key topics of interest at the fair included building renovation, new house construction, boiler replacement, and photovoltaics. This venue will host a variety of live formats for both trade visitors and the public, offering insights into new products, the EnergyGenie award winners, and opportunities for exhibitors to connect with attendees.
