Energy Asia 2025 forum aims to speed up collaboration on sustainable energy solutions, economic development and environmental responsibility
With about 60 per cent of the world’s population living in Asia, the global focus is firmly on the region’s efforts to reach net zero – where harmful greenhouse gas emissions are balanced by removing the same amount from the atmosphere – by 2050.
The region’s geographical size, economic power and technological capabilities mean its actions can play a pivotal role in driving the planet’s transition to using cleaner energies.
Currently, diverse initiatives for energy transition across the region include the use of solar power and major investment in hydrogen. But geopolitical issues and changes in government and trade policies are all hindering the clean energy sector’s growth.
However, the thought leadership and business advocacy forum Energy Asia by Petronas – the Malaysian energy company – aims to help the region develop its net-zero goal by inspiring feasible, collaborative and inclusive solutions to accelerate the adoption of sustainable energy practices.
