Heliatek (Dresden, Germany) exhibits at the Big 5 Solar – one of the leading solar exhibitions in the Middle East. The show takes place from 12- 15 September at the Dubai World Trade Center. It is part of the leading international building & construction show – The Big 5.
In late 2019, Heliatek was announced as one of three winners of the “Japan Energy Challenge 2019”, a competition hosted by Japanese SMAP Energy who drives to identify key technologies for the energy transition of Japan.
