The Thailand Country Climate and Development Report (CCDR) charts a strategic path aligning climate action with national development. It urges rapid adaptation and emission reduction to safeguard growth, manage risks, and unlock green opportunities across Thailand’s comparative advantage sectors, emphasizing that inaction costs far outweigh investments.
This joint report by ERIA, ADB, and METI examines the evolving role of transition finance, technology, and policy in supporting the decarbonisation of Southeast Asia’s emissions-intensive sectors such as power and heavy industry – the so-called ‘high emissions’ and ‘hard-to-abate’ sectors, respectively. These sectors are highlighted in high-level roadmaps that identify key investment areas for a pragmatic energy transition.
Southeast Asia’s electricity demand is set to double by 2050, with solar and wind now among the most cost-competitive options. This IEA report assesses the region’s readiness to integrate higher shares of variable renewables, outlining key challenges, opportunities, and actions for policymakers and utilities through 2030 and beyond.
The Study on the Roadmap for Multilateral Power Trade in ASEAN analyses how cross-border electricity trading can strengthen regional energy security, affordability, and sustainability. It outlines institutional, regulatory, and technical pathways, providing guidance for ASEAN Member States to design policies and mechanisms that support a phased approach—starting with subregional markets and building toward an integrated ASEAN-wide power trade system.
This first edition of the Technology Brief Series explores the role of renewable hydrogen in Southeast Asia’s power sector. It examines where hydrogen can add real value, the risks of inefficient use, and how policymakers can prioritise investments for a cost-effective and secure energy transition.
This brief shows how ADB plans to help Asia and the Pacific’s ports cut emissions, reduce their carbon footprint, and become more resilient using loans, grants, and equity from its proposed $1 billion Sustainable and Resilient Maritime Fund (SRMF).
Malaysia supports the development of a harmonised regional framework for ASEAN and is actively engaging in international agreements to facilitate the cross-border transportation of CO2, reinforcing its commitment to regional collaboration in CCUS initiatives. This report explores the evolving policy and investment frameworks, Malaysia’s future potential as a CCUS hub through their groundbreaking projects, barriers to overcome, and the way forward to accelerate CCUS.
Private FIs’ capital choices shape decarbonisation, yet voluntary pledges and CCIs underdeliver. The report proposes an “impact levers” framework for FIs, CCIs, and regulators to align finance with real-economy goals, embed risk, and prioritize actionable, actor-specific steps beyond net-zero targets.
