Wood Mackenzie Power & Renewables APAC Conference 2022 open for registration

Wood Mackenzie announces the launch of the second edition of its Power & Renewables Asia Pacific (APAC) Virtual Conference on July 26 – 28.

Asia Pacific is the world’s biggest electricity consumer and carbon emitter, larger than Europe and North America combined. With strong demand growth and coal still accounting for over half of power supply, the region has yet to peak carbon emissions and is at its infancy in the long journey to net zero. The path to success is now paved with even more obstacles as fuel and power prices soar, geopolitical tensions rise, supply chains are stressed and project developers face rising costs and unprecedented revenue risks. The big question now is whether Asia Pacific can rise above these challenges and take a proactive role in the energy transition. How are companies dealing with economic pressures while recalibrating environmental and net-zero strategies?

Join Wood Mackenzie experts and special guests from BASF, Energy Networks Australia, Huawei Technologies, Orsted Japan, Sumitomo Corporation Global Metals and many more. These industry leaders will discuss global trends, such as the impact of energy price inflation and the Russia/Ukraine conflict, as well as regional topics including Japan’s strategy in balancing energy security vs. carbon neutrality, the latest supply chain outlook from Asia’s wind, solar and battery equipment manufacturers, booming corporate low-carbon power procurement demand, Australia’s leading role in green hydrogen and ammonia and how these trends impact the industry.

Key external speakers include:

• Hemant Naidu, Regional Category Management – Electricity and Carbon Management, Asia Pacific, BASF
• Todd Li, President of Asia Pacific, Trina Solar
• Rupert Maloney, Head of Hydrogen, Clean Energy Finance Corporation
• Dor Son Tan, Head of Distribution, Energy Networks Australia
