Faster clean energy transitions reduce key energy security vulnerabilities.
Southeast Asia accounts for only 2% of global clean energy investments today. Scaling up investments brings multiple benefits, including lower bills & lower energy security risks from oil & gas imports.
Also Southeast Asia’s emissions & GDP have been rising in tandem
Today’s policy settings are enough to loosen this link, but the region's emissions are still set to rise by 35% by 2050
Clean electrification, clean fuels & energy efficiency are key to a much more sustainable pathway
