What this event is about

Southeast Asia is emerging as a global economic powerhouse, attracting record levels of foreign investment and experiencing surging electricity demand. With abundant renewable energy resources and growing interest from investors, the region is well-positioned for a rapid scale-up of solar and wind power. While several countries are making strides, there is significant untapped potential for further growth.

In response, Agora Energiewende, NewClimate Institute and the Energy Research Institute (ERI) Thailand have developed a new report under the project Clean, Affordable, and Secure Energy in Southeast Asia (CASE) – in collaboration with GIZ, who leads the consortium.

The report "Electricity market designs in Southeast Asia: Harnessing opportunities for renewable energy growth in Indonesia" Thailand, Viet Nam, and the Philippines, highlights key market and regulatory opportunities to accelerate solar and wind power deployment in ASEAN’s leading economies – outlining strategies to enhance investment certainty in renewables, unlock system flexibility, and reorganise power systems to deliver clean, affordable electricity.

In this 1.5-hour webinar, we presented the report’s key findings and examined their implications for each of the four countries. The session included a presentation of the report, followed by a panel discussion featuring country experts, including

Alberto Dalasung III (Institute for Climate and Sustainable Cities, the Philippines),
Bui Ngoc Thuy (Senior Energy Advisor, GIZ Energy Support Programme, Viet Nam),
Dr Phimsupha Kokchang (Energy Research Institute - Chulalongkorn University, Thailand), and
Dr Marlistya Citraningrum (Institute for Essential Services Reform, Indonesia).
