Additionally, the event hosts more than 200 qualified regional project buyers, who are looking for the latest technologies and innovation to use in their current projects.

Organisers have confirmed that over 90 per cent of the exhibitor space is sold out for the summit running at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (Adnec) from January 13 to 16.

There are also eight countries confirmed to host national pavilions at the event, to promote companies or projects in their markets to an international audience.

With an exhibitor footprint extending from Europe to Asia, into Africa and the Indian subcontinent, and as far as North America, the World Future Energy Summit covers all major nations supplying technology for renewable energy, water, waste, and smart cities.  For 2020, the Netherlands will join those countries with a dedicated pavilion on the exhibition floor, alongside Germany, Japan, China, South Korea, Switzerland, India, and France.
