Southeast Asia Nuclear Dialogue Series

As Southeast Asia faces rising energy demand and the imperative to decarbonise, nuclear energy is once again under consideration as part of the energy mix. 

Policymakers are seeking clear, balanced insights to guide decision making on whether – and how – nuclear power might support national energy strategies. In response, the International Energy Agency (IEA), in collaboration with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), is launching the Southeast Asia Nuclear Dialogue Series, a focused set of webinars examining the role of nuclear in the region’s energy transition, aimed at Government officials, industry leaders, and private sector decision makers shaping the future of energy in Southeast Asia.

This interactive series will explore the potential, challenges, and practical considerations of deploying nuclear energy in Southeast Asia. Designed to foster informed dialogue and build a community of engaged stakeholders, the series will also gather feedback to inform a regional nuclear energy workshop planned for 2026.
