With the Philippines requiring fresh investments of P774 billion to assure energy security for a fast-growing economy until at least 2016, policymakers, project owners, and experts in energy security and technologies will converge with corporate executives to explore business opportunities in the upstream, midstream, and downstream energy sectors during PowerTrends 2013 on September 25 to 27 at the SMX Convention Center.
As in the prior eight biennial editions of PowerTrends, the business potentials are in power generation, construction, finance, insurance, management and technical recruitment, infrastructures, equipment and materials supply,  and consultancy services.
Policies and projects will be discussed during a two-day forum by speakers from government and the private sector for a firsthand understanding by participating executives in-charge with initiating and aligning strategic investments of their enterprises.
An international exhibition will showcase modern technologies and equipment required in energy projects.
Interested parties may contact Leverage International at http://powertrends.leverageinternational.com. Email address is leverage@leverageinternational.com.
Major sponsors include the Malampaya Joint Venture Partners of Department of Energy, Shell Philippines Exploration, Chevron Malampaya and PNOC-Exploration Corporation.  Other major sponsors are ALSTOM, ANDRITZ Hydro GmbH, and Trans-Asia Oil and Energy Development Corporation.
 The fast economic growth of the Philippines projected by government, the World Bank, and international credit-rating agencies up to 2016 will require some P774 billion worth of fresh investments estimated by the Department of Energy to meet the expanded demand for electricity nationwide at least up to 2016.   source
