Energy Efficiency Day 2023 is the third edition of PE2’s annual event to engage a whole-of-society response toward mainstreaming energy efficiency as the economy’s first fuel. This year’s on-site event features CEOs and international partners to inspire scale-up of energy efficiency initiatives, driven not only by Republic Act 11285, but also by aspirations toward a net-zero and decarbonized energy future.

The Energy Efficiency Day 2023 conference will be held at 9:30am, Thursday, 23 March 2023 at Conference Hall 2, Level 2, SMX Convention Center, Mall of Asia Complex, Pasay City.

PE2 invites you to reserve a seat for this on-site conference.
