11. 11 Project 2. RS Vision Company and Project Assignment: This project is aimed at supporting the preparation of a major Wind energy exhibition in Shanghai at the end of May 2012. RS Vision is an exhibition and fair organizer which has taken the initiative to bring together Dutch companies in the field of wind energy and join forces to present themselves in particular on the Asian market. India, Korea and China are 3 countries who are planning to build major wind energy parks on- and off shore. For this purpose an association was build of 14 companies which will work together on the Asian market. The name of this consortium is Holland Home of Wind Energy (HHWE) and their website aimed at Asia is: http://www.windpowerasia.nl/. http://www.windpowerasia.nl/ The partners are mainly companies in the supporting industry of the major Wind park builders. Dutch companies are strong in supplying components and technology in this. “Up to 40 to 50% of the components in Northern European Wind energy parks come from The Netherlands”, according to Robert Schotema, Managing Director of RS Vision. The specific aim of the project will be to prepare a seminar or event during the Wind energy exhibition This seminar should deal with the availability and quality of educational facilities (universities and other professional education) in China and in The Netherlands, which educate the technical staff (engineers) who will design and build these Windmill parks. The seminar should attract companies, organizations, educational institutes and students. The partners in the HHWE consortium have a interest in such an event. Both the Rotterdam and Shanghai side should study: which companies and (government) organizations are involved in wind energy? which are relevant educational institutes, faculties, departments which deal with (aspects of) wind energy? where are they located? what is their specialism? How do their studies relate to wind energy? can we make a rating or ranking? is there already cooperation with companies/organizations involved in wind energy? how can students (beginning and master students be attracted towards winden ergy? etc..

12. Company and Project Assignment: Midwaste is association of regional waste collecting and processing organizations in the Netherlands. In the last decades the methods and technologies of separating, collecting, processing and reusing of garbage have made a big big leap forward in the Netherlands, leaving the country much cleaner than 30 years. A lot of these methods and technologies may be of interest to China, a country struggling with the huge effects of its rapid industrialization and urbanization with regard to waste disposal. In particular the European guideline on ‘Waste of Electronical and Electric Equipment ‘(WEEE) offers a new strong incentive to even further develop modern methods of waste disposal Earlier this year, among others, managers from the Shanghai department concerned with garbage disposal visited Midwaste. They were very interested in the methods of garbage disposal used by the Midwaste associates. There maybe a chance to ‘export’ these concepts to China, in particular Shanghai. The definite project proposal is still being studied by the Director of Midwaste and will be communicated to us at the end of this week or next week. 12 Project 3. Midwaste
