of exciting and profitable business opportunities.
 The Eilat-Eilot Renewable Energy Project will demonstrate to the conference's attendees a model

- Research and development
- Commercialization of new technologies
- Production of energy from renewable resources
- Energy saving technologies
- Energy conservation
- Supportive regulation
The Eilat-Eilot Renewable Energy Administration, initiator and host of the conference, proudly
takes it upon itself to implement this model.
 In recent years it has become apparent that business opportunities abound as part of the
transformation to alternative energy. Emphasis at the conference will be placed on presenting
such business opportunities as they are rapidly emerging in Israel and in the Eilat-Eilot region
in particular. Also, the conference will provide new Israeli and international companies with a
platform to present their latest product breakthroughs.
Israel is a prominent innovator in the alternative energy field and the country's accelerated
technology development, increasingly supportive regulations and vibrant business environment will
be presented at the conference as a key to the global renewable energy revolution.
