Top Energy Companies In Singapore 2024
Singapore's energy mix heavily favours fossil fuels, but the country is aiming to change this. As a result, several of the leading energy companies in the country are developing renewable energy projects. This will likely be spurred on by government subsidies and favourable policies in the coming decade.
Environmental Issues in the Philippines and New LNG Projects
The fossil gas expansion in the Philippines, mainly fueled by SMC, is taking place amid the worsening climate and energy crisis. The move risks burdening the nation with high energy costs, unreliable supply, stranded asset risk, increased energy dependency and a devastating impact on the environment.
Climate Change in Malaysia – Environmental Issues and Solutions
Malaysia relies heavily on fossil fuel-dependent industries, leading to near-term environmental damage and perpetuating climate change. The country needs to address these near-term issues while reducing emissions and creating adaptation strategies for the future.
Top 10 Oil And Gas Companies In Singapore [2024]
Oil and gas companies have long been a significant economic pillar in Singapore's economy. The country is the major thoroughfare and hub of fossil fuels in Asia. Most of the largest international fossil fuel companies have offices in Singapore, but there are also several major local companies. How will these businesses fare now that the energy transition is underway?
Environmental Issues in Japan and Solutions
Japan is particularly susceptible to climate change impacts as an island nation that straddles climate regions. However, its emissions targets are relatively new, and there is little progress to show towards them. This is exacerbating several existing environmental impacts within the country.
Electricity in Cambodia: Quality and Price Issues
Cambodia's electricity grid is ageing and cannot meet the country's rapidly growing energy demands. As a result, the country's electricity prices are some of the highest in the region, and its infrastructure suffers from quality issues. Tackling these challenges is a core component of the country's long-term energy security.
False Solutions to Climate Change Promoted in Southeast Asia Pose Various Risks
Instead of helping Southeast Asia wean itself off fossil fuels, ammonia-hydrogen co-firing solutions and CCS risk perpetuating their use and locking climate-vulnerable countries into a future of high emissions, air pollution and ecosystem disruption.
Solar Energy in Cambodia: Overcoming Energy System Challenges
Cambodia has one of the highest solar energy potentials in the region. The country plans to significantly scale capacity in the coming decades to strengthen the energy grid and reach its net-zero emissions goals.
LNG Demand Decline in Japan To Cause Oversupply Through 2030
Considering the economic, environmental and energy security arguments, investing in new LNG capacity to accommodate the oversupply of Japan’s utilities instead of clean energy is a short-sighted, strategic misstep for developing Asia.
Indonesia’s NRE Bill Calls On Coal-based Energy Sources
Indonesia is still debating its New and Renewable Energy (NRE) Bill five years after its introduction. However, the draft bill includes coal derivative products, while the environmental stance of the country's newly elected president, Prabowo Subianto, remains problematic at best.
Renewable Energy in Cambodia: Continued Growth
Cambodia sources over 50% of its energy from renewable sources and is planning further expansion in the next two decades. This growth will primarily rely on hydropower's slow growth and solar's rapid expansion. Cambodia must fill its existing financial gap to reach its renewable energy goals.
Climate Change in Cambodia: A Growing Concern
Cambodia is highly vulnerable to climate change, and its low economic development will hinder its adaptation and mitigation efforts. Global support is crucial for the country to meet its greenhouse gas emission and adaptation targets.
Will Indonesia’s New Government Support the Energy Transition?
Energy Insights speaks with Afu Utami on the Indonesian presidential election and the new government's energy policy and voters thoughts.
Indonesia to Experience a Green Jobs Boom, But Policy Changes Integral
Indonesia has ambitious plans for its green technology sector. However, to capitalise on the opportunities ahead, the country needs to make the industry more welcoming and lure its youth and experienced workforce to pursue green jobs.
