Connecting Capital with Quality Solar & Storage Projects in Asia
Solar Finance & Investment Asia Summit
ASEAN member states have set a collective renewable energy capacity target of 35% by 2025 which is likely to not only be met but significantly surpassed. As of January 2024, the ASEAN region has an operating capacity of utility-scale solar power of 18 GW with a pipeline of utility-scale solar capacity of 72 GW either already in construction or development.
The ASEAN region has also outpaced the average global energy demand by 4%, making this a market hungry for energy. This growing demand can and should be met by the financing, investment and deployment of renewables.
While the opportunity to scale the finance, investment and deployment of solar in Southeast Asia and the mature Asian markets of the East are immensely attractive, the region also has headwinds to navigate. These include a growth in coal-fired power plant capacity to meet energy demands as an alternative to renewables, insufficient investment in strengthening grid infrastructure, policy uncertainty and potentially unambitious net-zero targets.
Set to return September, 2025 the 8th Edition Solar Finance and Investment Asia Summit will bring together the most influential leaders representing funds, banks, developers, utilities, government and industry across the Asia-Pacific region on a programme that is solutions-focused from top to tail.
