The Department of Energy is partnering with the World Nuclear Association to convene global experts, companies, regulators and policymakers for what could be the Philippines' biggest nuclear conference, as reported by Philstar Biz.
Scheduled for October, the forum aims to explore nuclear energy's role in the Philippines' energy mix, addressing energy security and decarbonization goals. The event will bring together local and international stakeholders to discuss regulatory frameworks, technology options, and investment opportunities.
This initiative aligns with the government's push to include nuclear power in the country's long-term energy plan, potentially reducing reliance on fossil fuels. The conference is expected to feature exhibits, technical sessions, and high-level dialogues on advancing nuclear energy in Southeast Asia.
