ASEAN celebrated its 50th year of cooperation in 2017. With the establishment of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in late 2015, ASEAN is projected to become the fourth-largest economy in the world by 2030. One of the crucial elements in the realisation of AEC, which calls for a well-connected ASEAN to drive an integrated, competitive and resilient region – is energy. Securing affordable and sustainable energy supplies become an important agenda for ASEAN to achieve the aspirational target of 23% RE share in the primary energy mix by 2025 and to reduce energy intensity by 20% in 2020 based on 2005 levels, as outlined in the ASEAN Plan of Action for Energy Cooperation (APAEC).
