History

This project was launched in 1995 for the Department of Energy and the National Power Corporation during the height of the energy crisis in the Philippines.

The objective was to gather under one roof the major international energy players to introduce them to the Philippine market and the relevant government agencies and private counterparts.

Since then, POWERTRENDS has been a regular event supported by the Department of Energy and all the relevant industry agencies and industry associations.

Some significant Inputs/Benefits Contributed by POWERTRENDS to the energy sector and the economy: Build- Operate – Transfer (BOT) program to solve power crisis Deregulation of the energy sector Renewable Energy Act Accelerating power source development Coping with the climate change Renewable and Alternative Energy focus

Incorporated with Powertrends are 2 other major events: Energy Expo and

Electech/Lightech.

Powertrends focuses on power generation, transmission, distribution and

management

Energy Expo focuses on renewable energy, natural gas/LNG, energy efficiency

and alternative energies

Electech/Lightech focuses on electrical technologies and lighting

Previously a biennial event, Powertrends goes annual in 2016

a) to provide the platform for the newly-elected Government this year to

present its direction for the development of the industry;

b) to respond to the escalating energy demand;

c) to face the challenge of cutting down carbon emission in response to the

commitment of our leaders during the Paris conference last year

Powertrends is attended by every company, individual or anyone involved in

energy in anyway, either as exhibitor, conference delegate or visitor to the

exhibition. The event is also attended by financiers, investors and businessmen.

For the Industry, the event serves as welcome to the new Government and

introduction to the energy family. The agenda for the conference touches on

global and local concerns of the sector.

For technology suppliers, this is a fitting opportunity to show their capabilities.

For financiers/investors, businessmen, this is a great occasion for exploring

opportunities

The high-level business forum is a government-private sector interaction

to provide inputs for policy-making for the sector
