【WEPE 2026 Promoting Ecological and Environmental Development】

In today's increasingly globalized world, environmental issues have become a common challenge faced by all humanity, and the environmental protection industry has emerged as a vital force driving sustainable economic development. Governments, businesses, and all sectors of society are increasingly prioritizing the environmental protection industry, which has spurred research and development in environmental technologies and accelerated the industry's growth. To promote global exchange and cooperation in the environmental protection industry, accelerate innovation and application of environmental protection technologies, and foster the development of new productive forces in the ecological environmental protection industry, the 2025 Hongwei·Wuhan International Environmental Protection Industry Expo (abbreviated as WEPE 2026) will be held from March 19 to 21, 2026, at the Wuhan International Expo Center.

This expo will closely align with the dual carbon goals and industry development needs, concurrently hosting multiple high-level forums and technical seminars. We cordially invite government departments, environmental management agencies, municipal units, industry associations/societies, design/ research institutions, environmental service/consulting companies, engineering firms, project owners, smart environmental protection and high-tech companies, energy-saving environmental protection equipment and materials, low-carbon and green energy sectors to attend and exhibit. The event will explore new policy directions in the environmental protection industry, showcase research and development achievements, demonstrate the industry's “five new technologies” and products, and exchange best practices in typical applications, all to promote the development of the environmental protection industry!
