Accoat's Energy-Saving Coatings Create Great Interest at Bright Green
29 January 2010
Accoat exhibited its energy-saving coatings at Bright Green in Forum, Copenhagen, Denmark on 12-13 December 2009. The stand was located in the business section, booth number 20.
Bright Green was a technical exhibition linked to the UN's Climate Conference COP15. It attracted around 15,000 people during the two days of exhibition.
Accoat's CO2 positive cases
Accoat showcased energy-saving and CO2 positive surface solutions for the visitors. As the exhibition attracted a vast range of different people — UN delegates, scientists, business people, students and families — the exhibition crew of Accoat was asked a lot of different questions: What did Accoat sell? What were coatings used for? How were Accoat's coatings energy-saving and thereby bringing more balance? Naturally the exhibition crew discussed with enthusiasm all the issues raised by visitors.
At Accoat, we want to do our best to help the world reduce resource consumption and one way of doing that is spreading the word about the coating solutions that are currently available and which make good business sense.
Carbon capture and storage technology
Accoat showcased four cases in particular at Bright Green. The issues involved were: energy, transport, environment, and surface solutions. The visitors showed great interest in all but a lot of questions were linked to the transport issue and thereby carbon capture and storage technology.
Accoat participate in the EU's seventh frame programme (FP7) as part of an intra-European plan to develop high-tech carbon capture and storage (CCS) solutions. The idea is to collect CO2 from areas in which it is generated and transport it to redundant oilfields deep underground: in layman's terms; reducing CO2 emissions by storing the gas instead of releasing it into the atmosphere.
Accoat's role in the project entails significant responsibility given the fact that internal pipe surface treatments are crucial to protecting pipelines from CO2 corrosion and thus providing secure CO2 transport to the benefit of all Europeans.
We thank you for your visit
Accoat would like to thank all of you who paid its booth at Bright Green a visit.
