The Benefits Of Renewable Energy In ASEAN - 818 Words

1.0 Introduction The population of ASEAN region are expected to growing up from 615 million in 2014 to 715 million by 2025 [1]. It will increase the energy consumption which resulting in a rapid rise in energy demand. This expected to increase 4% of annual growth in energy demand until 2025 amounting to a rise of 50% over 2014 levels. The electricity supply demands in 2025 are also expected will double compare to 2014 [1]. Besides that, rapid growth in economic also increase the energy consumption in ASEAN. Due to rich in natural resources and highly liberalized economic policies, ASEAN countries are chosen as the most suitable place for foreign investor to develop their industrial project. For example Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia†¦show more content†¦General orientation for Vietnam energy policy is to ensure national energy security: includes supply and consumption security on, oil, coal, gas, electricity, and other sources. Vietnam applied effective utilization of energy sources and conservation of national energy resources, environmental protection in energy exploration and utilization [3]. Then, the development of renewable energy resources in Cambodia has been hampered by the lack of technical knowledge and funds. The development of solar, wind, bio-fuel and biogas in generating electricity seen as the opportunities as the current electricity prices in Cambodia are very high. The gover nment, with international assistance, has installed some 12,000 solar household systems. Attention to maintenance support will be needed to ensure sustainable results. Wind energy, on the other hand, is limited by wind speeds and the weakness of the grid and load system. Wind energy would be commercially viable, as illustrated by a pilot wind turbine project in Sihanoukville. Cambodia’s biomass energy potential is diverse, with large concentrations of agricultural residues. The government’s long-term target of substituting 10% of diesel imports with domestic biodiesel production and 20% of gasolineShow MoreRelatedThe European Union ( Eu ) And The Association Of Southeast Asian Nations2235 Words   |  9 PagesEU-ASEAN Dialogue relations Executive Summary The European Union (EU) and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), as two of the most important regional organizations, have been interacting with each other on the economic, political and cultural levels for more than four decades.

We can’t irresponsibly and irrationally waste natural resources in a way that does little to maximise benefit. However we must also appreciate that renewable energies and genetically enhanced foods are not advanced enough at this point to be reliable or cheap enough to sustain mass consumption. This means that we mustRead MoreBenefits Of Solar Scale Renewable Energy3495 Words   |  14 PagesAbstract—This paper will discuss the topic of small-scale Renewable Energy (RE) technologies, their progress and prospects in developing countries. Specifically, five technologies will be given a closer look: tidal array, geothermal, anaerobic digestion, small-scale hydro (micro and mini), and small combined heat and power (CHP). The paper will explain the technologies and the setting in which they can be applied, and look at case studies from developing countries where small-scale RE are makingRead MoreEnergy Security in Northeast Asian Countries3306 Words   |  13 Pagesï » ¿Energy Security Abstract In this paper, I have discussed the ways by which the Northeast Asian countries i.e. China, Japan and Korea must cooperate for their Energy Security.
