Governments across the world have been updating their energy and climate policies since the 2015 Paris Agreement. One common feature is the advent of long-term plans for a net-zero economy for 2050 and also in some cases to 2060. To meet these long term net-zero targets therefore, significant investment in new and clean energy infrastructure […]

The Low Emissions Analysis Platform (LEAP) and the­ Next Energy Modeling syste­m for Optimization (NEMO) were utilized in this pape­r. The authors evaluated whe­ther it's possible for deve­loping countries' power sectors, particularly Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar, to inte­grate 100% renewable­ energy. The findings affirm this goal can be re­ached. They can do this by harnessing powe­r from hydropower and non-hydro renewable­s. Energy storage is a vital component in this. The­ costs associated with this project are proje­cted to be around 1.1% to 1.8% of the GDP in 2020.

This chapter concludes that Vietnam and Malaysia are leading the race to Net Zero compared to Indonesia due to the availability of renewable energy financing and incentives for project developers.

The article discusses the importance of renewable energy for ASEAN's sustainable development and outlines the challenges, goals, and initiatives in achieving a 23% renewable energy target, highlighting the need for policy adjustments and further research to optimize renewable resource potential.

The development of the sustainable energy systems is crucial for economic growth and climate change mitigation. This paper proposes a nonparametric approach based on the by-production technology comprising the economic and environmental sub-technologies. We consider both renewable and fossil energy in the analysis. This approach allows identifying the most relevant energy development strategies at the […]

This study investigates the process of solar photovoltaic adoption among 234 residential households in the Philippines using the stage model, which assumes adoption as a process of transition along three stages: no interest, under consideration, and installation.

This review paper presents a survey of solar energy policies implemented in Southeast Asian countries, specifically Malaysia, and assesses effective existing solar energy strategies in developed countries.

This analysis explores the integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors in large-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage system (BESS) auctions worldwide, highlighting the potential for enhanced business outcomes and sustainable development.
