Reduced. The Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre has trialled a new system for energy saving at the Reed Gift Fair. These dedicated electricity outlets for cleaning in its main exhibition halls enable exhibition organisers to switch off all other power overnight. The Reed Gift Fair is the biggest trade show in Australia. The system played a major role in reducing power consumption at the event by an impressive 12 per cent. Centre Chief Executive Ton van Amerongen said the new power reduction option would now be offered to all exhibition organisers. “The Centre has won many awards for energy saving initiatives associated with its environmental program Ecowise but we are constantly looking for new ways to conserve energy,” Mr van Amerongen said.
