Check Out The Programme

Under the theme,"Wind Power to Prosperity in APAC: Building an Electricity-Driven Economy by Scaling Wind and Its Supply Chain", the APAC Wind Energy Summit will be delivered over three days, including two full days of conference programme and exhibition, alongside dedicated networking opportunities, receptions, and side events such as workshops.


The Summit brings together policymakers, industry leaders, developers, investors, and supply chain actors from across the Asia Pacific region and beyond, with a strong focus on the key themes shaping the future of wind energy in the region.

 

From high-level forums on financing, energy security, and corporate demand, to deep-dive technical sessions on floating offshore wind, grid integration, digitalization, and supply chain industrialization, the programme reflects the full complexity and potential of wind energy in the region.

 

For it's fourth edition, attendees can expect two stages. A strategic Plenary stage forming market-shaping policy discussions and a technology-led Knowledge Theatre stage.

 

The programme balances big-picture strategy with practical solutions, offering clear insights into how APAC markets can scale wind energy at pace while strengthening energy security, economic resilience, and industrial competitiveness.
