The diary and events listing shows past and future events and can be searched to find the specific entries you want, or displayed in diary form. This includes the REA's own events and the REA partner events.

Annual REA Conferences

The REA hosts a series of conferences each year, including:

• The REA Annual Conference in June
• The Awards Gala Dinner, on the evening of the Annual Conference
• The Wave and Tidal technologies Symposium, in September
• The Bioenergy Conference, in October, covering biomass, bioenergy and biofuels
• The Onsite Renewables Conference, now called the Smart Energy Show

These are seen as the primary events for the relevant sections of the renewables industry and so present excellent opportunities for sponsors to raise their profile within the field.

The REA arranges many other seminars, meetings, conferences and exhibitions open to members and others.

Awards

This section also covers the British Renewable Energy Awards, presented at the Gala Dinner, which is the highlight of the renewables year.

Other REA events

We co-sponsor the Finance Network for Sustainable Energy (FinNeSse) together with the UK Social Investment Forum.

Our sector groups each have their own schedule of meetings and activities.

The Annual General Meetings of the Association and other events intended just for members and staff are detailed in the REA internal meetings section.

Other events

The Association also supports events arranged by others and we list third party events likely to be of interest to members.
