The connection to the scientific and academic community plays a fundamental role in the development of the Renewable Energies and Energy Efficiency sector. The research and the dissemination of knowledge allow the constant perfection of technologies and processes in a way of achieving more effectiveness and economy, therefore providing an essential impulse for the growth of this sector.

Reflecting this fact, RENEXPO® Portugal will present the R&D-Energy area, a space in which several Universities and Research Centres, beyond displaying their latest projects, will be in direct contact with the companies.

Some of these Universities and Research Centres will also hold several technical and scientific workshops on several topics.
