The Energy Chamber
The Energy Chamber

The Energy Chamber is the representative organization for the Trinidad & Tobago energy and related sectors. We are based in the City of San Fernando, a member of the World Energy City Partnership and the traditional hub of the energy and heavy industrial sectors. Membership of the Chamber is, however, drawn from across the country and beyond. Founded in 1956, the Chamber is an independent a-political organization governed by a Council elected annually from amongst the membership. The Chamber has a strong tradition of vigorously and effectively representing our members' interests and for significantly contributing to national development.

The Trinidad & Tobago Energy Conference
Trinidad and Tobago Energy Conference Logo

The Trinidad & Tobago Energy Conference (formerly the Trinidad & Tobago Petroleum Conference), since 1989, is organised by the Energy Chamber, the representative association for the Trinidad & Tobago energy sector (www.energy.tt). It is a well respected and well established energy conference and widely regarded as the premier energy sector event in the Caribbean region. The vision of the Chamber is to steer the energy sector of Trinidad & Tobago and the wider Caribbean from mere hydrocarbon extraction to sustainable development.

The annual conference attracts members and non-members from around the region and is a prestigious event on the international conference circuit. The Energy Conference continues to grow in scope and importance and for the past two years has incorporated both a Workshop and Tradeshow element.
