The Hamburg trade fair company Hamburg Messe and the Husum trade fair company Messe Husum signed a cooperation agreement for joint organisation of the premier international wind event.

This will in future be the only international trade fair for the wind industry in Germany, and will be held for the first time under the new name of HUSUM WindEnergy, in Husum from 9 to 13 September 2008. This new trade fair, like its precursors HUSUMwind and WindEnergy, will take place at two-yearly intervals.
