Data Processing Workflow

A standardized approach to collecting, validating, and presenting industrial energy data across ASEAN.

1

Data Collection

Raw data collected from AMS based on standardized templates agreed by all countries.

2

Pre-Processing

Checking completeness and consistency of submitted data before analysis.

3

Analysis

Data analyzed to generate benchmarks, trends, and comparative metrics.

4

Visualization

Final data published on the platform with interactive charts and dashboards.

What We Aim to Achieve

Building regional capacity for evidence-based energy policy and industrial decarbonization.

Strengthened Data Availability

Build a centralized, trusted, and reliable platform for industrial energy data, starting with key sub-sectors like Cement, Steel, and Pulp & Paper.

Established Benchmarking Framework

Create a standardized methodology to compare energy performance (e.g., GJ/tonne) across sub-sectors and AMS, identifying best practices.

Regional Collaboration

Enable evidence-based policy, knowledge sharing, and technology transfer to accelerate the reduction of industrial energy intensity.
