APAEC Drafting Committee
The 38th ASEAN Ministers of Energy Meeting (AMEM) held virtually on November 19, 2020 and hosted by Vietnam, endorsed the APAEC Phase II: 2021-2025, retaining the same theme of “Enhancing Energy Connectivity and Market Integration in ASEAN to Achieve Energy Security, Accessibility, Affordability and Sustainability for All”. A sub-theme was added: “Accelerating Energy Transition and Strengthening Energy Resilience through Greater Innovation and Cooperation.”
The APAEC Phase II: 2021-2025 builds on the success of APAEC Phase I: 2016- 2020 and sets out ambitious targets and initiatives to enhance energy security and sustainability. It also supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 7 (UN SDG7).
