What happens when energy and innovation collide? You get Giga Summit 2025 — a powerhouse of ideas, solutions, and bold conversations that could shape the future of the Philippines’ energy sector.

Set for April 24 to 25 at The Fifth at Rockwell in Makati City, this year’s Giga Summit, spearheaded by the Meralco Power Academy (MPA) under the leadership of Manuel V. Pangilinan, is all about exploring how artificial intelligence and nuclear energy can revolutionize the way we power our country.

After a game-changing launch in 2023, MPA is turning up the voltage with over 30 local and international experts and energy leaders flying in from across the globe — including Canada, France, South Korea, Japan, and the U.S. — for this year’s theme: “The Fusion of Power and Intelligence.”

So, what’s on the agenda?

Day one kicks off with big-picture talks on sustainable power supply — with special focus on nuclear energy’s growing potential to become a reliable, long-term power source. Heavyweights like MGreen, Electricité de France, Mitsubishi Power, and Actis are leading the “Trailblazers” keynote sessions. The International Atomic Energy Agency is also hosting a deep-dive on “The Case for a Nuclear-Powered Future.”

The summit’s second day dives into the future of our power grids — think AI, virtual power plants, battery energy storage systems, and smart grid tech. Companies like Meralco, Huawei, and Microsoft will join global energy disruptors to explore how we can build a resilient, intelligent, and future-ready distribution network.

As MPA President and Meralco EVP/COO Ronnie L. Aperocho puts it:

“The Giga Summit 2025 is where vision meets action that will drive transformation in the ever-evolving landscape. We’re not just having conversations — we’re exploring the transformative power of AI in redefining the country’s energy future.”

Big names from the Department of Energy, the Philippine Senate, and the Energy Regulatory Commission are also expected to attend — proving that this isn’t just an industry event; it’s a national moment.
