April 21, 2014: Interest in Renewable Energy Is Growing, Says AHR Expo Survey
Steady Growth in the Number of Exhibitors Showcasing Renewable Energy Products
WESTPORT, Conn. — According to a 2014 AHR Expo post-show survey of attendees, 41 percent of the more than 2,000 respondents said they came to the show seeking products related to “renewable energy resources” (geothermal, solar, etc.). When these sample results are projected across the 42,000-plus visitors, more than 17,000 HVACR professionals attended to find products and solutions related to renewable energy.
“We’re not surprised,” said Clay Stevens, president of International Exposition Co., which produces and manages the AHR Expo. “We know the interest in renewable energy resources is growing rapidly, so it is especially encouraging to see such a widespread interest across all segments of HVACR professionals at the show.”
