Philippines to host global nuclear supply chain forum

The Philippines will host the 2nd Philippine International Nuclear Supply Chain Forum (PINSCF) on October 2–3, 2025, at the Grand Hyatt Manila in Taguig City.

The forum supports the government’s goal of integrating nuclear energy into the national power mix by 2032, in line with the Philippine Energy Plan 2023–2050.

Under this roadmap, the country aims to install 4,800 megawatts of nuclear capacity by 2040 to enhance energy security and reduce carbon emissions.

This year’s forum will bring together delegations from Argentina, China, Finland, France, Hungary, Japan, Russia, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States.

Philippine regulators, industry players, and suppliers will also join plenary sessions, technical presentations, and networking events throughout the two-day program.

The first edition of PINSCF, held in 2024, introduced international best practices and innovations in nuclear construction, operations, and regulation.

Energy Secretary Sharon S. Garin said the forum is crucial for building long-term partnerships in the nuclear sector.

“Last year’s forum laid the groundwork for meaningful engagement between the Philippines and the international nuclear community,” Garin said.

“This year’s edition will advance those conversations into concrete partnerships and strategies to strengthen nuclear supply chains,” she added.

Garin also emphasized the Philippines’ commitment to a safe and responsible energy transition.

“By convening global leaders in the nuclear supply chain, the Philippines is signaling its readiness to engage at the highest level and ensure that its path to nuclear energy development is guided by world-class expertise and safe, sustainable practices,” she said.
