The journey towards the 5th edition of India Energy Week (IEW) 2027 officially began on 28 September 2026 with the Curtain-Raiser event held in Kolkata, West Bengal. The event marked an important milestone as India Energy Week prepares to make its debut in the state, bringing together stakeholders from across the global energy ecosystem.
The main India Energy Week 2027 is scheduled to take place from 28 to 31 January 2027 at the New Town Convention Centre, Kolkata. The upcoming edition is expected to provide a major platform for policymakers, energy companies, investors, technology providers and industry leaders to discuss emerging opportunities and challenges shaping the future of energy.
India Energy Week 2027 to Take Place in Kolkata
Held under the patronage of the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Government of India, India Energy Week is organised by the Federation of Indian Petroleum Industry (FIPI). Over the years, the event has developed into an important international platform for discussions, business networking, technology showcases and partnerships across the energy value chain.
With Kolkata selected as the host city for the 2027 edition, the event is expected to strengthen connections between India’s eastern region and international energy markets. The city’s strategic location and growing role in trade and infrastructure provide an important backdrop for discussions on India’s evolving energy requirements.
Global Energy Leaders Expected at IEW 2027
The organisers are expecting more than 75,000 energy professionals and 700+ international exhibitors to participate in India Energy Week 2027. The large-scale gathering is expected to create opportunities for businesses and technology companies to showcase solutions, establish partnerships and explore new markets.
The participation of international exhibitors will also provide a platform for companies to demonstrate technologies and services addressing changing requirements across conventional and emerging energy sectors.
For industry professionals, India Energy Week 2027 will offer opportunities to engage with policymakers, investors, manufacturers, technology providers and energy companies through exhibitions, conferences and networking programmes.
Focus on a Secure and Sustainable Energy Future
The 2027 edition will focus on the changing global energy landscape and the need to develop practical solutions for a secure, affordable and sustainable energy future.
Energy security, affordability and sustainability continue to influence investment and technology decisions across the global energy industry. Against this backdrop, India Energy Week 2027 is expected to provide a platform for stakeholders to examine technologies, policies and business models that can support the transition towards a more resilient energy system.
The event will also highlight the role of innovation and collaboration in addressing the energy demands of rapidly growing economies while supporting long-term sustainability goals.
Key Energy Sectors to Feature at the Exhibition
The exhibition at India Energy Week 2027 will feature dedicated thematic areas covering several major segments of the energy industry. These areas are expected to showcase technologies, products and solutions across both established and emerging energy markets.
Key themes will include hydrogen, biofuels, digitalisation and artificial intelligence, renewable energy, LNG, petrochemicals, net-zero pathways, nuclear energy and city gas distribution.
The wide-ranging exhibition profile reflects the increasing convergence between traditional energy industries and new technologies. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore solutions spanning energy production, transportation, distribution, digital technologies and decarbonisation.
Hydrogen and Biofuels in Focus
Hydrogen and biofuels will form part of the thematic focus at India Energy Week 2027, reflecting the growing interest in alternative and lower-carbon energy solutions.
Hydrogen is attracting significant attention globally because of its potential applications across industries, transportation and energy systems. Similarly, biofuels are becoming increasingly relevant as countries explore alternative fuel sources and strategies to reduce emissions.
The dedicated focus areas at IEW 2027 are expected to bring together technology companies, policymakers, investors and industry professionals working across these emerging sectors.
Digitalisation and AI Transforming the Energy Industry
Digitalisation and artificial intelligence are also expected to feature prominently at the exhibition. Energy companies are increasingly exploring digital technologies to improve operational efficiency, asset management, forecasting, safety and decision-making.
The India Energy Week 2027 exhibition will provide an opportunity for technology providers to present digital solutions and AI-based applications designed for different stages of the energy value chain.
The presence of these technologies also highlights how the future of energy is increasingly connected with data, automation and intelligent systems.
Make in India Zone to Showcase Indian Capabilities
A dedicated Make in India Zone will further highlight Indian technologies, manufacturing capabilities and engineering solutions. The zone is expected to provide visibility to domestic companies and demonstrate India’s growing capabilities across the energy and engineering sectors.
The initiative will also support opportunities for Indian businesses to connect with international participants and explore potential collaborations, technology partnerships and market opportunities.
For domestic manufacturers and solution providers, India Energy Week 2027 can serve as an international platform to demonstrate their capabilities to energy professionals from India and overseas.
Strategic and Technical Conferences
Beyond the exhibition floor, India Energy Week 2027 will feature Strategic and Technical Conferences covering key developments across the energy sector.
These conference programmes are expected to facilitate discussions around energy security, technology development, investment, sustainability, market trends and the future direction of the global energy system.
The technical sessions will provide opportunities for experts to share knowledge, research, industry experiences and practical approaches to addressing challenges across the energy value chain.
Leadership Roundtables and India Energy Club
The programme will also include leadership roundtables designed to facilitate high-level conversations among senior industry stakeholders. These discussions are expected to address strategic issues affecting the global and Indian energy landscape.
Another key component will be the invitation-only India Energy Club, which will provide a platform for senior-level engagement and networking.
Together, the conferences, roundtables and India Energy Club will complement the exhibition by creating opportunities for dialogue, knowledge exchange and business collaboration.
Kolkata Becomes the New Host City
The selection of Kolkata as the host city gives India Energy Week 2027 a new regional dimension. As an important gateway to eastern India, Kolkata has strong links with regional trade, industry, infrastructure and international markets.
Hosting the event in West Bengal is expected to create opportunities for greater participation from businesses and stakeholders across eastern India while connecting them with national and international energy companies.
The move also expands the geographical reach of India Energy Week and provides an opportunity to highlight the region’s role within India’s broader economic and energy development.
India Energy Week 2027 to Connect the Global Energy Community
With expectations of more than 75,000 energy professionals and 700+ international exhibitors, India Energy Week 2027 is set to bring together a broad cross-section of the global energy community.
The combination of a large-scale exhibition, strategic conferences, technical sessions, leadership roundtables and networking platforms is expected to encourage discussions and partnerships across the energy value chain.
As the global energy sector continues to evolve, the event will provide stakeholders with opportunities to examine emerging technologies, investment opportunities and practical approaches to building a more secure, affordable and sustainable energy future.
