"Southeast Asia is poised to play a pivotal role in global energy decarbonization, driven by its rapidly expanding economies and growing populations. However, the region remains heavily reliant on fossil fuels to meet its energy demand. Energy and Decarbonization in Southeast Asia delves into the critical research topics shaping the region's path towards sustainable energy transformation. From regional interconnectivity via the ASEAN Power Grid to advancements in solar and wind energy, carbon capture and storage, low-carbon hydrogen, and green financing, this book provides a comprehensive exploration of innovative strategies and pressing challenges.
Featuring contemporary case studies across three key themes-socio-economic and environmental challenges, technological and political pathways, and strategies to foster regional cooperation-this volume offers actionable insights for Southeast Asian policymakers, researchers and practitioners. By addressing fundamental questions surrounding the region's evolving climate priorities, the authors present a forward-looking analysis of the energy sector's transition and its implications for the future." -- Beni Suryadi, Acting Executive Director, ASEAN Centre for Energy
"The volume captures very important political and economic nuances involved in transitioning from a heavy dependence on fossil fuels to renewable energy, resource nationalism and the challenges involved in driving decisions to carry out cross-border trade between countries, and the importance of understanding the role of energy financing in promoting the mitigation of greenhouse gases in Southeast Asia. An indispensable collection of articles for readers to quickly grasp many important energy issues all in one compendium." -- Lee Poh Onn, Senior Fellow with the Regional Economic Studies Programme and Malaysia Studies Programme at the ISEAS - Yusof Ishak Institute, Singapore
"This compendium presents a detailed examination of decarbonization topics relevant to Southeast Asia, offering insights into the region's energy transition." -- Thang Nam Do, Fellow in the Zero-Carbon Energy for Asia-Pacific Grand Challenge Program; the Resources, Environment and Development Program, Crawford School of Public Policy, Australian National University, Canberra.
