Notably, over 20 foreign energy ministers and deputy ministers from advanced economies and major energy-producing nations will also participate.
The event will feature 90 CEOs from Fortune 500 energy companies, including industry giants like bp, TotalEnergies, and QatarEnergy. This diverse representation underscores the event’s importance as a hub for dialogue on energy transition and innovation. The inclusion of seven strategic themes—Collaboration, Resilience, Transition, Capacity, Digital Frontiers, Innovation, and Leadership—reflects a commitment to addressing pressing global energy challenges.
With a focus on pragmatic solutions for decarbonization and energy equity, IEW 2025 aims to foster discussions that align with both global and national agendas. The event’s structured stages on Resilience and Transition will ensure that the conversations remain relevant to India’s goals of energy independence and sustainable development.
Expanding Themes and Participation
This year’s India Energy Week will introduce 20 thematic categories, an increase from 18 in 2024.
