Senior central government ministers, state ministers and secretaries, along with international energy ministers and CEOs of major utilities and power enterprises, are scheduled to attend. Participation confirmed includes delegates from more than 25 states and union territories and ambassadors and representatives from around 60 countries, reflecting growing global interest in India's energy transition. Attention will be given to vendor development under the Make in India initiative and to advancing indigenisation of technologies across generation, transmission, distribution and storage.

A large scale exhibition occupying more than 20,000 sqm will showcase technologies and solutions across thematic zones for power generation, transmission, renewable energy, energy storage, distribution and smart grid technologies. The event will include dedicated areas for startups, innovation and emerging technologies and will host sectoral CEO forums, international ministerial dialogues and specialised conferences on stationary energy storage, Industry 4.0 in transmission, hydropower development and carbon markets. Structured buyer-seller meets and international procurement engagements are expected to facilitate direct linkages between global buyers and Indian manufacturers.

Investment opportunities are estimated at over Rs 50 trillion (tn) to 2032 in generation, transmission, distribution and energy storage and the summit intends to catalyse investment, technology partnerships and supply chain resilience. Sessions will also address ways to expand inclusive energy access, modernise grid infrastructure and develop the workforce needed to support the evolving sector. Organisers anticipate the event will strengthen India's role in the global electricity ecosystem and accelerate collaborations that support a resilient, affordable and sustainable energy transition.
