PROJECT DESCRIPTION (DE)
Initial situation
Southeast Asia's energy demand is forecast to increase by 70 percent by 2040. Currently, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam are responsible for 80 percent of total energy consumption in Southeast Asia. How the energy industries of these countries develop will therefore have a significant impact on whether the region can achieve its development goals while ensuring clean, safe and affordable electricity.
The share of wind and solar energy in the four countries is far below the great potential. The main obstacles include: inconsistent energy planning, little considered potential for renewable energies and energy efficiency, doubtful grid capacities and stability, above-average investment costs, lack of political will and deadlocked processes.
Objective
Fact-based knowledge on a clean, affordable and safe energy transition in Southeast Asia helps to expand the public debate and political goals in order to comply with the Paris Climate Agreement.
Approach
The project aims to advance climate goals in Southeast Asia's energy industry. To this end, it cooperates with international and local organizations that work on climate science. The project proposes evidence-based solutions so that decision-makers can shape the energy transition and build social support for it.
To this end, it implements the following measures, among others:
The project collects data with the partner organizations and prepares it in a way that is appropriate for the target group and purpose so that it can be fed into dialogues. This should contribute to a consensus for the energy transition.
