11/04/2009

DUBAI – There is much for modern society to learn from our heritage when it comes to living in harmony with the environment, pointed out Ali Bin Towaih, Executive Director of the Sustainable Energy and Environment Division (SEED), and ENPARK, the energy and environment park and a member of TECOM Investments.

Bin Towaih’s comments came during his presentation titled ‘TECOM’s Journey to Sustainability’ during the Alter Energy Convention 2009 held from 27-29 October at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.

ENPARK was one of the main sponsors of the Alter Energy Convention 2009, a conference-led event held in conjunction with Oil and Gas Show (OGS) 2009, the 16th edition of the premier oil, gas, renewable energy and automation event. In addition to Bin Towaih, leading industry experts such as Hermann Scheer, former member of the German Parliament, and Paul Dickerson from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, offered presentations on a host of related topics seeking to shed light on issues related to the reduction of carbon and water footprint.
