SIEW Summit

Connecting Energy Systems, Powering Tomorrow

Organiser Energy Market Authority
Date 26 Oct 2026
Venue Level 5, Sands Grand Ballroom

The urgency to build the power systems of tomorrow is accelerating globally. As demand surges, driven by AI, data centres, electric vehicles and cooling needs, our success depends on connecting energy systems: creating more resilient regional grids, integrating diverse sources and next generation technologies like advanced nuclear, hydrogen, biomethane, geothermal, and carbon capture utilisation and storage, and forging stronger cross-border collaboration.

To translate these connections into real impact, we need robust policies, innovative finance, and international partnership. The ultimate goal is to power a secured future – achieving energy resilience, sustainability and inclusive development for generations to come.

How can public and private leaders collaborate to bridge ambition with action? SIEW 2026 convenes global stakeholders to strengthen alliance, share forward looking insights and advance the innovative solutions that will power our shared future.

Topics

Discussion Areas

Connecting the Energy Systems of Tomorrow As Asia’s energy demand rises and power systems become more complex, connectivity and resilience are increasingly critical. This panel will bring together senior policymakers and industry leaders to discuss cross border coordination, grid integration and system connectivity, and how governments and stakeholders can work together to support a secure, sustainable and future ready energy landscape across Asia.
Energy Security and the Future of Gas
The evolving geopolitical landscape has impacted the supply of natural gas and liquefied natural gas worldwide. This panel will examine the future role of natural gas in relation with global energy security and resilience. This panel will also explore the opportunities ahead for gas, including LNG, biomethane, and hydrogen-ready fuels to support energy transition.
Technology for Resilient Energy Systems

Across ASEAN and the Asia Pacific, the demand for clean, reliable energy is accelerating, driven by AI, data centres, and growing cooling needs, creating a powerful opportunity to reimagine and modernise our energy systems and infrastructure.

This panel will explore how advanced technologies, from AI and digital grids to advanced nuclear, hydrogen, and carbon capture, are reshaping regional energy networks, and creating opportunities for innovative collaboration. The panel will also discuss the cooperation required to facilitate the deployment of overland and submarine cross border interconnections

The Grid of Tomorrow The future grid will be more interconnected, intelligent, and flexible, enabling seamless integration of diverse energy sources and cross-border power flows. This is key to strengthening energy security and supporting a more resilient and low-carbon system.
This panel will explore how next-generation grid technologies and digitalisation are enabling greater interconnectivity and system coordination. It will also discuss the role of regional integration and infrastructure development in building a more connected and future-ready power system.
Financing Tomorrow's Energy World The connected energy systems of tomorrow demand more than ambition – They require innovative financing and strong public-private collaboration at scale. Mobilising capital for energy infrastructure remains one of the most critical enablers for global energy transition.
This panel will explore how innovative financing approaches, risk mitigation tools, and sustainable finance frameworks can unlock investment and translate ambition into action.
