WELCOME FROM PENNWELL CORPORATION Dear Colleague, Welcome to this preliminary guide to this year’s POWER-GEN Asia conference & exhibition. I hope it will whet your appetite to what is in store when the region’s power industry meets 2-4 October in Bangkok. Although it is unusual for POWER-GEN Asia to remain in one location for two consecutive years, there is no better country than Thailand to do so, given its strong economy and the support the event enjoys from the local power industry. Once again, we can promise you the most comprehensive and valuable conference, exhibition and networking event serving the electricity generation industry. By co-locating with Renewable Energy World Asia, the event is easily the largest and most significant gathering of power industry professionals in South East Asia. POWER-GEN Asia 2013 enjoys the full support of key industry related organisations in Thailand, including the Ministry of Energy’s Department of Alternative Energy and Efficiency, The Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT), the Metropolitan Electricity Authority, the Provincial Electricity Authority as well as Thailand’s Convention & Exhibition Bureau. These host organisations will help ensure you have a truly worthwhile experience at POWER-GEN Asia 2013. Economies across South East Asia continue to exhibit strong growth rates on the back of buoyant domestic demand. Malaysia’s GDP grew last year by 6.4 per cent while Thailand reported growth of 6.1 per cent in 2012. Growing economies create increased demand for electricity from both industry and domestic consumers with Thailand, for example, expecting to see investment of over $50 billion in its electricity sector in the next few years. A recent study predicts Thai energy demand to double in the next 25 years. Despite the investment drive, Thailand is likely to remain a net energy importer for quite a few more years and its access to fuel sources remains a key issue, as does its policy of growing the alternative energy sector from 9.8 per cent of the energy mix to 25 per cent by 2021. Elsewhere in the region new opportunities are emerging as more attractive policy frameworks are developed in countries including Indonesia, Myanmar and the Philippines and the Advisory Board for POWER-GEN Asia has been keen to reflect this in the content presented at this year’s event. With a growing amount of investment being made in renewable energy technologies, the joint POWER-GEN Asia and Renewable Energy World Asia event creates a joint forum addressing all the key issues across the entire spectrum of the power generation industry. POWER-GEN Asia is about taking time out to meet your industry face-to-face, to discuss the issues of the day, become acquainted with new technologies and techniques and build the business networks that will open doors to new commercial and personal opportunities. The three days of POWER-GEN Asia offers all this through its comprehensive strategic and technical conference sessions, its vast exhibition floor and its various networking events. This Pre-Show Guide contains the entire conference programme for POWER-GEN Asia plus the summary grid for the Renewable Energy World Asia conference, with all sessions across the six tracks open to registered delegates from both events. Any additions or modifications to the programme will be reflected on the respective websites: www.powergenasia.com www.renewableenergyworld-asia.com You will also find details of the many other activities that form part of POWER-GEN Asia such as the technical tours and networking events, plus a list of the exhibitors you can meet in Bangkok. Most importantly, you can find out all the ways to register to attend POWER-GEN Asia on page 3 and how you can take advantage of the Early Bird discounts on offer. The power industry across Asia is undergoing considerable change, occurring at the same time as an increase in demand that will require new infrastructure to be built. Those individuals and organisations embracing the change, developing and adopting new technologies and implementing visionary business strategies, will emerge as the winners. Make sure you are in the forefront of this change by joining us in Bangkok 2-4 October and benefit from the best power networking opportunities in Asia. Kind regards, Nigel Blackaby Conference Director, POWER-GEN Asia PAGE 4 / WWW.POWERGENASIA.COM

The event is of great significance to many organizations and business enterprises in power industry and energy management, including the equipment manufacturers and suppliers, energy service providers, fuel suppliers as well as research and development institutes. EGAT is a large organization which has played a vital role in power generation and transmission.

We also operate a high voltage transmission network and National Control Center under the Enhanced Single Buyer (ESB) Model. Natural gas is major fuel in power generation, followed by lignite, heavy oil and diesel respectively. Apart from these, renewable energy such as hydro, solar and wind power is also used to reduce global warming.
