Sustainability

Sustainability is central to operations, with a focus on achieving SDG goals. The venue features new solar panels on its roof, generating approximately 500 MWh of electricity annually and reducing CO2 emissions by up to 480 tonnes per year. Other initiatives include waste management (separating 12 types of waste), energy-saving measures (upgraded heating/cooling, LED lighting, energy-efficient AV equipment), eliminating plastic at events, using natural materials for exhibition installations, maintaining green areas, and planning a cycling station with e-bike charging. The venue also promotes sustainable transport through agreements for free public transport for event participants and encourages locally grown food for catering. It aligns sustainability reporting with the European CSRD Directive.
