Implementing Clean Energy Transitions
Focus on road transport in emerging economies This report assesses the impact of the road transport sector on energy demand, CO2 emissions and air pollution in several selected major emerging economies over the coming decades under several IEA modelling scenarios. Most notably the Announced Pledges Scenario (APS) aims to show to what extent announced ambitions and targets, including the most recent ones, are on the path to deliver emissions reductions required to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.Bringing about a road transport decarbonisation pathway in line with the APS in the selected major emerging economies - Brazil, People’s Republic…

Clean Energy Transitions Programme 2021
Annual report 2021 The Clean Energy Transitions Programme (CETP) has enabled the International Energy Agency (IEA) to significantly expand and deepen its global engagement and to support emerging economies’ transition to clean, resilient, sustainable energy systems. In 2021 the CETP marked its fourth full year since its launch at the 2017 IEA Ministerial Meeting, and the programme has steadily grown in size and impact.The CETP Annual Report 2021 aims to provide all CETP donors and partners with insights on the programme’s accomplishments, outputs and efforts across all areas of work. The report highlights activities and achievements for each…

Southeast Asia Energy Outlook 2017
…fuel consumption subsidies, increase regional co-operation and encourage greater investment in the region’s considerable renewable energy potential.But much more remains to be done. Access to modern energy is incomplete. With a total population of nearly 640 million, an estimated 65 million people remain without electricity and 250 million are reliant on solid biomass as a cooking fuel. Investment in upstream oil and gas has been hit by lower prices since 2014 and the region faces a dwindling position as a gas exporter, and a rising dependency on imported oil. At the same time, energy-related air pollution, both indoor and…

Southeast Asia Energy Outlook 2022
…ambitions, this IEA report explores possible trajectories for Southeast Asia’s energy sector, differentiated primarily by the policies pursued by governments across the region. It relies on the scenarios included in the latest edition of World Energy Outlook, namely:The Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS), which reflects the countries’ current policy settings based on a sector-by-sector assessment of the specific policies that are in place or have been announced.The Sustainable Development Scenario (SDS), which delivers on the Paris Agreement goal to limit the temperature to “well below 2°C, alongside the goals on energy access and air pollution. This…

Southeast Asia Energy Outlook 2019
…are facing significant financial strains.Since 2000, overall energy demand has grown by more than 80% and the lion’s share of this growth has been met by a doubling in fossil fuel use. Oil is the largest element in the regional energy mix and coal – largely for power generation – has been the fastest growing. This has underpinned the region’s development and industrial growth, but has also made air pollution a major risk to public health and driven up energy-related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.Southeast Asia has considerable potential for renewable energy, but (excluding the traditional use of…

Cost of Capital Observatory
Tracking the cost of capital for clean energy projects in emerging and developing economies The Cost of Capital Observatory is an initiative from the IEA, the World Economic Forum, ETH Zurich and Imperial College London. The aim of the Observatory is to increase transparency in the energy sector and inspire investor confidence, especially in emerging and developing countries where data on financing costs is scarcer.The Observatory is divided into three sections:A Dashboard that provides free data on the cost of capital for energy projects in emerging and developing economies, updated with 2023 and 2024 data in July and…

Indonesia Case Study
Cost of Capital Observatory Case Study The Cost of Capital Observatory is an initiative from the IEA, the World Economic Forum, ETH Zurich and Imperial College London. The aim of the Observatory is to increase transparency in the energy sector and inspire investor confidence, especially in emerging and developing countries where data on financing costs is scarcer.Case Studies include lessons learnt of how policymakers, together with the private sector, development finance institutions and other entities managed to mitigate risks and mobilise capital for clean energy sectors across the emerging and developing world.

Advancing Decarbonisation through Clean Electricity Procurement
…models for India and Indonesia, the report applies quantitative analysis to examine the implications of different procurement strategies for emissions reduction, procurement costs and technology deployment. A key finding is that when companies set more granular goals – such as matching their electricity demand hourly (rather than annually as has been the dominant practice) – it can stimulate deployment of the wider portfolio of flexible technologies needed for net zero transitions in the power sector.The report aims to guide corporates in choosing impactful ways to procure clean electricity. It also highlights the roles of policy makers, regulators, system operators and network…

Scaling Up Renewables in the Java-Bali Power System: A Case Study
…a system integration analysis of the Cirata PV project was conducted in mid-2020 by the International Energy Agency (IEA). This article highlights that analysis, its context and the findings. Context Indonesia is an archipelago country that spans the equator. It is the world’s fourth most populated country with a significant role as an energy consumer and major coal exporter, as well as the global leader in biofuels production. By mid-century, Indonesia is forecast to be the world’s fourth-largest economy. Its government aims to modernise the energy sector and to achieve universal electricity access by 2024…
