A Connected and Sustainable Energy World – 17th Singapore International Energy Week

At the SIEWConnects@Siemens Energy networking event, the Singapore International Energy Week (SIEW) 2024 theme “A Connected and Sustainable Energy World" was announced.

Singapore: Unveiled today, it reflects the urgency to modernise power grids, enhance regional interconnectivity, enable greater cross-border power trade, and expand green financing and carbon markets. International collaboration, joint investment, and R&D into low-carbon technologies like hydrogen and geothermal energy are pivotal for an effective and equitable energy transition.

Into its 17th edition, SIEW 2024 will return from 21 – 25 October to convene key discussions for achieving sustainability and security in the energy sector. Discussions will include growth opportunities in clean energy technologies and the vital roles of low-carbon technologies, transition finance, and energy market innovation that can pave the way towards a decarbonised energy future. SIEW 2024 will commence with the SIEW Summit comprising the SIEW Opening Keynote Address, Leaders Dialogue, and Singapore Energy Summit, which will feature energy ministers, industry captains and leaders of international organisations.

"Strengthening regional connections, enabling seamless cross-border power trade, and expanding green financing, are essential for accelerating the energy transition. Deepening global cooperation through joint investments in low-carbon technologies and research will drive innovation and help us achieve a Connected and Sustainable Energy World.” said Ngiam Shih Chun, Chief Executive of EMA.

Highlights at SIEW 2024

For the first time, Singapore and the International Energy Agency (IEA) will jointly organise the inaugural Singapore-IEA Ministerial Forum to discuss the opportunities and challenges with regards to decarbonisation in Southeast Asia and beyond. The 4th Singapore-International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) Forum, themed Energy Transition: Towards Tripling of Renewables by 2030, will focus on unlocking and scaling pathways in our road to 2030.

In conjunction with SIEW 2024, SP Group will host the 25th edition of the Association of the Electricity Supply Industry of East Asia and Western Pacific (AESIEAP) CEO Conference from 21 to 23 October 2024 to discuss the theme of “Empowering the Energy Transition”. Held biennially, the AESIEAP CEO Conference is a by-invitation meeting to engage the industry’s top executives from over 60 member companies.

Returning partner events include Asia Clean Energy Summit (ACES), Asian Downstream Summit (ADS), Asia LNG Market Conference and Future of the Grid. To better address key energy topics that can accelerate the net zero energy transition:

  • ACES will feature the Asia Carbon Summit focusing discussions on carbon markets and decarbonisation efforts in Asia,

  • S&P Global will organise Commodity Insights’ Future Energy Masterclasses on Hydrogen, Power & Renewables, Cleaner Energy and Carbon Markets, while

  • the ADS will feature an Ammonia and Carbon Capture Asia conference.
