Cheap Green Hydrogen and its Impacts on Asia’s Oil and Gas Industry
Much has been said about the trouble in decarbonising sectors like shipping and aviation, but...
Countries Gearing Toward the Clean Energy Transition
Asia is the main engine behind the clean energy revolution. Developing and developed markets across the continent are now increasingly working towards a sustainable future. While challenges remain, the opportunities are huge. China, India, and the ASEAN countries' success stories are just a small example of what lies ahead.
Asia’s Pathway to a Sustainable Future
As the biggest energy consumer and leading CO2 emitter, Asia is the continent in the biggest need of tangible and collective action in the fight for a net-zero future. While the progress hasn't been on par with the EU and the US so far, experts are unequivocal - Asia is the continent that will experience the biggest renewable energy boom in the upcoming decades. For financiers, this means unrivalled opportunities.
The 7 Guiding Principles for Clean Hydrogen Energy Deployment
The hydrogen industry has long been reliant on fossil fuels. However, things are starting to change. Several companies are already making progress in clean hydrogen project and technology development. The introduction of the seven guiding principles, alongside the decreasing costs, marks the start of a new era that will allow governments and organizations to capitalize on green hydrogen's potential to streamline their decarbonization efforts.
Greening Urban Transport in Asia to Meet Net-Zero Goals
Most Asian countries have some form of net-zero goal. Reaching these goals is critical but only possible if transportation emissions significantly decline. Unfortunately, throughout Asia, many countries are seeing a steady increase in personal car ownership. It will fall on the government and private sector to develop sustainable forms of urban transport that increase transportation efficiency and decrease emissions.
Why Clean Cooking Is Not Always Climate Friendly
From a climate perspective clean cooking technologies that are currently being pushed are not always climate friendly with a reliance on LPG.
How Electric Cars Took Over Our Streets
Electric vehicles are widely accepted as having less environmental impacts than their fossil fuel counterparts. Government and public pressure has made it clear that EVs will be the dominant form of vehicle in the future. For the most part, the automotive industry has taken this call to action in stride - developing plans to increase EV development. Yet, there are still a few auto giants that are slow to transition - namely Toyota.
Green Transportation Trends in Asia – A Wave of Electric Charging Stations
China's EV sales and adoption rates are substantially higher than the rest of the world. This is driven by continued government subsidies and mass development of infrastructure, like electric charging stations. In many ways, this model appears to be working. What valuable lessons can the rest of Asia take from China?

Addressing Climate Change With Green Transport and Pure Electric Vehicles
Transportation related carbon emissions account for nearly 25% of global emissions. Reducing these emissions is a key step for Asian countries to meet their national emissions targets and Paris Agreement goals. This can be done in two ways: increasing pure electric vehicle use and developing efficient mass transportation systems. Both of these changes need to be initiated by government policy - and some Asian countries are already leading the way.
Green Transportation in South Korea – a Key Enabler for the Net-Zero Revolution
South Korea is facing an uphill battle to make notable progress towards clean energy in line with the Paris Agreement commitments. Green transportation appears to be one of the most powerful tools in the government's arsenal. The opportunities in the industry are huge, while the challenges are solvable.
South Korea Prepares for Net-Zero by 2050. But Is It Enough?
While others run, South Korea seems to stroll towards its net-zero by 2050 goal. However, with the latest green deals, the local government shows ambition to change the country's trajectory and notably speed up its renewable energy transition.
Malaysian Oil and Gas Company Petronas Ventures into Renewable Energy
Petronas is one of the largest oil and gas companies in the world - controlling the fourth largest fossil fuel reserves in Asia. Yet the government owned business is aware that oil and gas is loosing traction. Since 2013 Petronas has been investing in renewable energy and currently controls over 1 GW of solar arrays. Further investment in renewable technologies is expected in the coming decades.
