Asian nations offer considerable scope for investment in
renewable energy assets, underpinned by state-level ambitions to
achieve carbon neutrality. In the first of a two-part series, we
explain where six diverse Asian countries wish to go with
renewables, and the assets that will help them to get there.
Asian renewable assets represent fertile ground for funds. The
Asia Pacific region is expected to attract around 40% of
total global investment in renewable energy capacity
between now and 20501, with Southeast Asia the
focus.
The region represents a perfect storm of renewable needs:
population growth, rising demand, pressure on supply, abundant
renewable resources and an increasingly supportive regulatory
environment to attract funds.
