The Japan Energy Summit 2025 is poised to become the focal point of global energy discussions when it kicks off in Tokyo from June 18 to 20, 2025 at Tokyo Big Sight. This event follows an important announcement from JERA, Japan's largest power generation company, confirming a groundbreaking Long-Term Supply Contract for the procurement of up to 5.5 million tons of LNG per year from the United States over the next two decades. This strategic move has garnered significant attention from energy professionals around the world, highlighting the importance of stable energy supply and diversification in today's geopolitical climate.

Opening Ceremony and Keynote Speeches

The summit will commence on June 18 with an opening ceremony featuring notable figures such as JERA's Global CEO and Chairman Kani Yukio, along with representatives from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI). They will address the strategic importance of the long-term LNG supply contract, emphasizing LNG's essential role in enhancing Japan's energy resilience amidst current global challenges.

Exhibition and Networking Opportunities

Parallel to the main conference, a prominent exhibition will showcase key players in the energy sector, including JERA, Tokyo Gas, Aramco, Chevron, Cheniere, JOGMEC, and TotalEnergies.
