Indo-Pacific Business Forum: Energy Sustainability in the Indo-Pacific

Описание: Indo-Pacific Business Forum: Energy Sustainability in the Indo-Pacific

The Indo-Pacific region accounts for about 60 percent of global energy consumption. The International Energy Agency estimates that over the next two decades, the Indo-Pacific’s demand for electricity will continue to grow dramatically. Strengthening power systems and energy markets to provide reliable, affordable, and diverse fuel supply will help meet this demand. This discussion will explore applying an “all of the above energy” strategy to the Indo-Pacific and how the Indo-Pacific fast-growing economies offer vast opportunities for energy infrastructure investments. The panel will also discuss how initiatives like Asia EDGE and other regional initiatives can help Indo- Pacific region meet this growing energy need.
