ADIPEC 2026, the upcoming energy industry event, is set to welcome record participation from Asia, marking a significant milestone in the region’s drive to meet its growing energy demands. The event, hosted by ADNOC and held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, and Ruler of Abu Dhabi, is expected to attract more than 239,000 attendees from across the global energy ecosystem.
According to the press release, ADIPEC 2026 will feature 353 companies and six country pavilions from Asia, including China, India, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, and South Korea. These Asian organizations will join over 2,250 exhibitors across 16 halls and 30 international pavilions, showcasing technologies, infrastructure solutions, and industrial capabilities. The event will also host more than 1,800 confirmed speakers, with senior leaders from across Asia among the participants.
The event’s strong participation from Asia underscores the region’s growing influence on the global energy market. China is forecasted to account for nearly half of worldwide electricity demand growth through 2030, while India is expected to remain the single largest contributor to global energy demand growth through 2035. Southeast Asia is projected to contribute around a quarter of global energy demand growth through 2035, driven by industrialization, urbanization, and digitalization.
The diverse range of topics covered in ADIPEC 2026 includes the Strategic Conference, which will bring producers, buyers, and infrastructure developers together to examine how supply can be expanded and diversified for import-dependent Asian markets. The Natural Gas & LNG programme will address contracting, market access, shipping, and regasification capacity, while the Grids, Infrastructure & Industrial Execution programme will focus on the generation, transmission, storage, and infrastructure capacity required to support Asia’s industrial, urban, and digital growth.
The Finance & Investment programme will explore how capital can be mobilized for the region’s expanding infrastructure pipeline, including the risk allocation to commercial structures that move projects from plan to delivery. The Maritime & Logistics programme will focus on the ports, fleets, and shipping routes connecting global energy producers with Asian buyers, and the partnerships needed to maintain supply chain reliability as volumes grow.
The AI, Digital & Technology Innovation programme will examine the role of artificial intelligence, automation, and advanced analytics in energy systems, alongside the increasing power requirements created by Asia’s rapidly expanding data-centre and digital economy. New Leadership Dialogues will bring these themes directly into the boardroom, including sessions on integrating renewables and gas in high-growth power systems and the new technology frontier: Asia’s role in shaping global innovation.
This event is not just about showcasing technologies and infrastructure but also about fostering partnerships and advancing strategies. ADIPEC 2026 aims to connect Asia’s growing energy needs with the global organizations, capital, and capabilities required to deliver future growth.
