Important information
Delegate list scam
Please be aware that people in our industry have been contacted offering to purchase delegate lists for our events. We would like to reassure you that this is a scam, which has also been used with other leading industry events. We do not divulge delegate information to third parties, nor do we provide information about our delegates without their explicit prior permission. We would urge you not to give out credit card details or other information to anyone contacting you offering to sell details of attendees to our events.
Accommodation scam
It has been brought to our attention that scam accommodation bureaux have been approaching exhibiting companies and members of the hydro industry claiming to represent the conference and offering discounted accommodation. Please be aware that these companies have no affiliation with us, and we would urge you not to give credit card or personal details to anyone offering to book accommodation for you. The only way to book accommodation through us is by registering, through the online registration process, or, if you have already registered online, by contacting Event Management Services. Event Management Services will not approach you to try and sell accommodation.
About ASIA 2023
The Aqua~Media International team, with the support of the Malaysian Government, the Malaysian Committee on Large Dams, and the State Power utilities, welcomes the global water and energy community to the vibrant, multi-cultural city of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Peninsular Malaysia, as well as Sarawak and Sabah, have wide experience of large and small hydropower development and multipurpose dams. Study tours will visit to some of the large cascade developments in Peninsular Malaysia. Hydropower supplies about 20 per cent of Malaysia’s approximately 34 GW of installed capacity, with hydro supplying more than 20 TWh/year. The Government is strongly committed to increasing the share of renewable energy in the country’s generation mix, with a target to add 4 GW of renewables across the thirteen states by 2030.
The country has about 104 large dams. The most recently completed in Peninsular Malaysia are the Puah dam for the 250 MW Hulu Terengganu powerplant (completed in 2015), and Susu RCC dam for the 372 MW Ulu Jelai hydro plant (commissioned in 2016) The latest large scheme going ahead in Sarawak is the 188 m-high Baleh CFRD, following the completion of Bakun and Murum. Some of the most important schemes in Peninsular Malaysia will be visited during post-Conference study tours.
