About WADE:
 
WADE is a non-profit research and advocacy organization that was established in June 2002 to accelerate the worldwide deployment of decentralized energy (DE) systems. National cogeneration and DE organizations, DE companies and providers, as well as a range of national governments now back WADE. In total, WADE's direct and indirect membership support includes over 200 corporations around the world. It is the worldwide representative organization for those parties seeking the economic and environmental benefits of decentralized energy (DE) generation - including high efficiency cogeneration (also known as combined heat and power, CHP) and decentralized renewable energy technologies.

Cogeneration - win-win approach for energy efficiency increase in South-East Europe

Bulgaria emits positive signals regarding the development of its economy. Electricity company EVN Bulgaria has opened recently a cogeneration plant worth 100 million levs ($74.1 million/51.1 million euro) in Bulgaria's second largest city of Plovdiv. The investment is a fresh "cash injection" for the local economy. The plant is the most modern facility of this type in the Balkans and the capacity of the new energy "jewel" is 49,9 MW (megawatt) electric power and 54 MW thermal capacity. By commissioning the new cogeneration, "EVN Bulgaria Toplofikatsia"EAD will increase its coefficient of efficiency by 20% from the current 70% to over 90%, as the new gas turbine is of a new generation and is extremely effective. Dr. Erwin Pröll, the Prime Minister of Lower Austria, expressed the confidence that the country will continue to make steps towards improving energy efficiency, which is a prerequisite for positive development of the Bulgarian economy.

Latest market opportunities in the green energy sector will be outlined at the forthcoming 8th South-East European Congress and Exhibition on Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy and SEE Solar (March 28-30, 2012, Sofia, Bulgaria). The Organizer Via Expo has invited Mr. David Sweet, WADE Executive Director and he will give a presentation on the economic and environmental benefits of cogeneration. Financing of EE & RES projects, energy efficiency, biomass resources and bionergy will be the other Program highlights. Leading companies will showcase a diversity of solar, bio-, wind, geothermal and cogeneration energy systems and energy saving technologies at the Exhibition. Canadian Solar, Global Wind Power, Fronius, Hewalex, juwi Solar GmbH, kWpower srl. and Vestas - this is only a part of the exhibitor list so far.
