POWER-GEN Asia, the premier conference and exhibition for the power generation and transmission and distribution industries, has announced the preliminary programme to the region’s leading power industry conference, with an excellent high quality line up of speakers.
Developing the Asian Market Through An Optimal Energy Mix
Following this years conference theme, which looks at the regional nature of the possible solutions to the demand for power, a diverse range of topics will be discussed by an equally broad range of international speakers, from traditional fossil fuel technology to the developments in green and renewable power generation.
The conference programme will also see two Plenary Sessions discussing ‘Regional Fuel Developments - Implications for the Power Sector’ chaired by Norman Kegler, Advisory Council Convener Co-Chair of the Hong Kong-based Independent Power Producers Forum, and ‘Acquisition & Investments’ chaired by Daniel Liew, managing Partner, Asia,Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP.
Over 75 presentations will take place at POWER-GEN Asia during the three-day conference, which will be held at the state-of-the-art KLCC Convention Centre, Kuala Lumpur, from 21st to 23rd October 2008. Further details of the Preliminary Conference Programme can be found by visiting www.powergenasia.com.
Conference Director, Nigel Blackaby, said, “We are excited by the quality of this years conference programme. The strategic and technical content provides great information and educational opportunities for all power industry executives to observe, learn and update their skills and knowledge of emerging technologies and key topics that will affect the future of the region’s power generation industry.”
“This year’s programme offers a great range of speakers, from across the industry and around the world, sharing their experiences and skills and we are also delighted that presentations will also be made by some of the key industry policy makers and establishments, such as Suruhanjaya Tenaga (Energy Commission) and Pusat Tenaga Malaysia, which will provide great interest to the industry,” continued Mr. Blackaby.
The POWER-GEN Asia exhibition also offers a valuable insight into the new developments and technologies available in the market and has seen this year’s exhibition grow to its largest since the event began 16 years ago.
Event Director, Glenn Ensor, said, “The sustained growth of POWER-GEN Asia is important in maintaining the on-going support of organisations such as the Ministry of Energy, Water & Communications, Tenaga Nasional Berhad and the Energy Commission. We are delighted with their endorsement, and indeed the on-going support of existing exhibitors, whilst welcoming new companies who will experience the benefits and opportunities of being involved with POWER-GEN Asia.”
With the likelihood of over 125 exhibitors from around the world and over 5000 expected visitors from over 50 countries, POWER-GEN Asia has become the most important annual meeting place for international power executives with interests in the ASEAN region.
