The report argues that the planned $379 billion expansion of gas infrastructure in Asia threatens the global goal of limiting warming to 1.5°C and risks creating stranded assets. It highlights that the region is planning 320 GW of new gas-fired power and 452 mtpa of LNG import capacity, which could emit up to 117 Gt CO2-eq over their lifespans. The document contends that renewable energy is now a more cost-effective and reliable alternative, and calls for the redirection of public finance away from gas to support net-zero goals.

• The region is developing 320 GW of gas-fired power capacity, which would nearly double Asia's gas-based electricity generation and increase global gas-fired capacity by one-fifth.
• Asia is the primary focus for the global LNG industry, with plans for 452 mtpa of new import capacity, representing 70% of the world's developing capacity.
• The planned LNG terminals and pipelines in Asia could emit 117 Gt CO2-eq over their lifespans, which is approximately one-quarter of the global carbon budget required to limit warming to 1.5°C.
• Public financial institutions provided 22.4 billion USD for gas projects in Asia between 2014 and 2018, led by the Export-Import Bank of China, Japan Bank for International Cooperation, and the Asian Development Bank.
• Renewable energy is presented as a more cost-effective alternative to gas, with solar PV and wind power already being the cheapest sources of electricity in China and India.
