Asia's Clean Energy Breakthrough; Unlocking Corporate Procurement for Sustainable Growth
The transition to clean energy is no longer a question of “if”, it’s a matter of “how fast.” Across Asia, companies are racing to meet their decarbonization goals, but they’re hitting a common barrier: access to renewable energy just isn’t keeping up with demand.
At the Asia Clean Energy Coalition (ACEC), we believe this moment presents a powerful opportunity. With the right policies in place, Asia can not only close the clean energy gap but unlock significant economic, environmental, and social benefits in the process.
Today, we’re proud to release our flagship report, Powering Asia’s Clean Energy Future; Unlocking renewable energy policy and investment across the region, a deep dive into how five key markets—Indonesia, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, and Viet Nam—can lead the way in corporate renewable energy procurement.
This report doesn’t just lay out the challenges. It presents the opportunity cost of inaction, and the rewards that await with strategic policy reform. Our analysis, supported by proprietary economic modeling from EY, shows that achieving national RE targets could deliver:
- Tens of billions in additional economic output
- Hundreds of thousands of new jobs
- Measurable reductions in carbon emissions
But numbers alone aren’t the story. The momentum is real. Major corporates are stepping up. Market demand is undeniable. And governments are beginning to respond.
So what’s standing in the way? And more importantly, what needs to change?
