Private-Public Renewable Energy ASEAN
Summary
The study examines renewable energy financing through public-private partnerships (PPP) in Southeast Asia and Central Asia. It notes that while hydropower has historically dominated PPPs in both regions, there is a rapid shift toward solar and wind projects. In Southeast Asia, the transition is driven by national commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions via Nationally Determined Contributions, while Central Asian energy profiles vary between fossil fuel reliance in Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan, and hydroelectric power in Tajikistan and the Kyrgyz Republic.
Key insights
- Renewable energy project financing in Southeast Asia and Central Asia has historically trended toward hydropower, but has recently shifted toward solar and wind-based projects.
- In the Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation region, energy production is split between fossil fuel-rich nations (Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan) and those utilizing large hydroelectric power stations (Tajikistan and the Kyrgyz Republic).
- Southeast Asian nations are shifting toward renewable energy due to voluntary national commitments to lower greenhouse gas emissions through Nationally Determined Contributions, as economic growth has led to energy demand occasionally exceeding supply.
