Asia Clean Energy Forum 2018
04 June 2018 to 08 June 2018
Manila
PhilippinesAt the Asia Clean Energy Forum 2018, energy experts will address key clean energy challenges, successes, and innovations across Asia and the Pacific.
ADB, USAID, and the Korea Energy Agency are organizing the Asia Clean Energy Forum (ACEF) 2018 with the aim of sharing best practices in policy, technology, and finance to meet the region's climate and energy security challenges.
This 2018, ACEF will continue to promote the exchange of knowledge on clean energy and related issues through targeted and in-depth discussion sessions. This format is designed to allow participants to delve in and out of topics, thereby giving them the opportunity to learn both at a very technical and hands on level as well as at a more macro level.
