Now is the time to share the innovation potential that the Green Economy is offering Italy. Current events have made the need to free the country's system from fossil fuels even more evident. And Italian Exhibition Group's events, Ecomondo and Key Energy, to be held at Rimini Expo Centre from 8th to 11th November 2022, will focus respectively on Italy's ecological and energy transition.

Wind, Solar and Storage, Energy Efficiency, Sustainable City, E-mobility. These are the sections into which the exhibition area of the 15th edition of Key Energy (Rimini Expo Centre, 8-11 November, alongside Ecomondo), an Italian Exhibition Group event, will be divided. A show that, now more than ever is the place to be in order to accelerate the diversification of Italy's energy supply and to boost system creation in the Mediterranean basin.

Ukraine has banned all imports from Russia, one of its key trading partners before the war with annual imports valued at about $6 billion, and called on other countries to follow and impose harsher economic sanctions on Moscow.

The Russian government said on Sunday it has increased its reserve fund used for emergency spending by 273.4 billion roubles ($3.52 billion) to ensure economic stability against the backdrop of Western sanctions over Ukraine.
