Global Critical Minerals Outlook 2025 Regional snapshots
…Latin America, rich in critical minerals, is projected to reach USD 154 billion in mining and refining value amid regulatory reforms to attract foreign capital. China, already dominant, is expected to grow from 45% to 50% of global refining market share. The rest of Asia is also emerging as a key player. Southeast Asia’s mining sector is set for rapid growth with a focus on nickel, cobalt and rare earths. Japan and Korea are investing in overseas assets and promoting recycling. India is moving to unlock untapped reserves. Australia, a major player in global critical mineral supply chains, continues…

World Energy Investment 2025 Southeast Asia
In the past, Southeast Asia’s rapid economic growth was mostly driven by fossil fuels but clean energy now accounts for almost half of energy investment Southeast Asia is a rapidly developing region, with GDP per capita increasing by more than 30% since 2015. During the last ten years, energy demand has increased by over 35%, with electricity demand rising by more than 60%. Driving this is a 12% increase in electricity access rates, growing consumption in industry, urbanisation and rising incomes creating demand for cooling and other appliances. Historically, this rising energy demand has been met by fossil fuels…

Australia
Established under the 2022 Climate Change Act, Australia's climate goals include doubling emissions reductions by 2030 and reaching Net Zero emissions by 2050, while ensuring a just and inclusive energy transition through the guidance of the Net Zero Authority under the Prime Minister’s office. By 2030, the government aims to reach the clean electricity target of 82% of renewable energy. In addition to this target, Australia is implementing a new 2030 critical minerals strategy and gas market reforms to boost energy security during the transition. Flexibility, fuel availability and resilient infrastructure will become even more vital as Australia…

Southeast Asia Energy Outlook 2026 Energy in Southeast Asia
Southeast Asia is becoming an increasingly important part of the global energy system. The region accounts for 9% of the world’s population and 4% of its GDP. Energy use has risen sharply since 2015, supported by industrialisation, urbanisation, rising incomes and expanding mobility needs. This growth has helped underpin economic development and wider access to modern energy, but it has also increased exposure to global fuel markets and added to emissions. The current Middle East crisis has tested Southeast Asia’s energy security and affordability, exposing the limits of short-term responses. The region was heavily exposed to Middle…

Southeast Asia Energy Outlook 2026 Energy outlook to 2050 based on targets and pledges
Achieving Southeast Asia’s announced energy and climate pledges would bring forward a structural shift in the region’s energy system. In the Announced Pledges Scenario, total energy demand grows by around 2% per year to 2035, as stronger efficiency gains and electrification weaken the link between economic growth and energy consumption. Clean energy meets most incremental demand growth, raising its share in the energy mix to around 30% by 2035.Fossil fuel demand peaks before 2035 across all major fuels in the APS, in contrast to continued growth under today’s policy settings. Coal demand peaks around 390 Mtce…
