Reuters Events’ latest whitepaper: Ensuring Energy Supply and Security across Asia-Pacific

– PV MAG – Jul 05, 2022 EDT (Asia)

Demand for energy in South Asia has risen by 50% in the last 20 years. Asia Pacific as a region is the largest energy consumer, but whilst it is dynamic and has huge potential, it is only at 25% readiness for the transition.

There is a huge amount of progress to be made, and the next steps are critical.

The Energy Division Section Chief at the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific says: “What happens in the Asia Pacific and the energy transition will affect the rest of the world.”
