Industry Panel Discussion - Emerging Opportunities in Green Energy in Asia
As Asian economies recover, there is greater emphasis on green growth and sustainable energy developments to meet increasing energy demand. Smarter cities, electrification, digitalisation, low carbon technologies offer immense potential and business opportunities. Against this backdrop, this panel will discuss the role of the private sector and businesses in pursuing green growth to facilitate the energy transition, and the challenges and opportunities of promoting low carbon energy in Asia.

• How can businesses leverage on the opportunities for green growth in the region?
• As economies recovers from the pandemic, how will the energy mix change moving forward, and how will that impact energy investments in Asia?
• How do we scale up low carbon ambitions for a region as diverse as Asia to balance energy demands, carbon constraints and growth?
• What are some ways we can ensure inclusivity and sustainability, to ensure a fair and just energy transition?
