About Us

In April of 1996, a discussion forum called the World Renewable Energy Forum was launched. With the Worlds focus increasing on alternative energies and sustainability, our forum grew to over 6,000 members in just a few years.

A subject matter discussed continually within the forums was the lack of an impartial website that gives knowledge and information about renewables without being biased towards particular sectors within the Industry or that was simply an advertising platform. A one-stop shop for the renewable energy professional appeared to be the solution.

So, fifteen members of that original forum decided to form a dedicated website to encourage discussion and interaction between the industry leaders and the general public. This was funded completely from personal finance and the decision was made to make the website completely free for all members. It remains that way today.

The original concept included a Technology, Forum and Jobs sections. Today our website, www.worldofrenewables.com, has enjoyed the same rapid growth that our forums enjoyed. WoR has expanded to included an Events Calendar and our new Trade section, allowing even the smallest companies to advertise their respective products.

In addition and thanks to funding we have received, it has been possible to launch our dedicated Jobs website; www.renewableenergyjobs.net, which is also completely free for all members.

We hope you continue to enjoy our many free services and look forward to educating, encouraging and enabling you to better do your jobs within your respective Renewable Energy Sectors.
