The new partnership that was announced today complements ESE's existing cooperation with the metal and plastics industry as well as the retail and viticulture sectors. Within the scope of this cooperation, industrial and commercial users will be informed about energy storage systems and actively invited to ESE. This way, Messe Düsseldorf is building a bridge between energy storage manufacturers and users, thus giving new momentum to industrial and commercial decarbonisation.
"The former partner trade fairs of ESE alone have recorded over 9.000 exhibitors and more than 300.000 visitors. We will inform them about energy storage applications via selected information channels of Messe Düsseldorf. This gives ESE exhibitors, energy storage providers and energy efficiency experts access to exciting new customer groups," explains Andreas Moerke, Executive Team Manager of Energy Storage Europe.
Glass manufacturing very energy-intensive
The glass industry has always taken an avid interest in improving its energy efficiency since many of its manufacturing processes are very energy-intensive. Recently, however, numerous companies have stepped up their commitment even further, as is demonstrated by the selection of Dena flagship projects for CO2 reduction in industry: This year four out of the 13 selected projects came from the glass industry.
Information specifically geared to Users
As part of this cooperation, glasstec will use its information channels to inform enterprises in the glass industry about the solutions presented at ESE and possible glass-related applications of energy storage systems.

ESE in turn will include glass production and processing as focal themes in its information portfolio. The central Decarbonisation Hub will feature an exhibition area specifically devoted to glass, where visitors will be able to find out more. Furthermore, free best-practice lectures will be offered at the Forum of the exhibition hall.
Strong interest already in 2020
Energy Storage Europe launched the information channels specifically geared to energy storage specialists from partner industries this year and met with great interest from the start: “The postponed ESE 2020 already showed that there is a strong interest in decarbonisation and energy-storage technologies in our partner industries: We received several hundred registrations from potential users,” Moerke adds.
New digital format of glasstec
glasstec Virtual took place from 20 to 22 October. At this new digital knowledge and networking platform exhibitors were able to present themselves to the sector and interact with potential customers. All participants of glasstec Virtual had free access to the 3-day conference programme plus all additional online offerings of the exhibitors for the duration of the event. All events and exhibitions are still available online.
Energy Storage Europe 2021 is scheduled to take place at the Düsseldorf Exhibition Centre March 16 to 18 2021. (mfo)
