Corporate Renewable Energy transition in South-East Asia

The corporate world is the end consumer of almost 60% of all the energy produced in the world, making it a vital link in the global energy transition. The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) estimates that - following the current path - by 2050 corporates will be taking up 18% of total renewable energy consumption. However, in order to stay below the 2 degrees Celsius limit defined at the Paris Climate Accords, this figure should be 80%. That is a large gap to fill. Multinational operations have large production and supply chain footprints across Asia, but struggle to find suitable ways to engage in renewable energy in a number of countries in the region. Solarplaza is hosting two webinars (20 & 27 September, 2018) dedicated to corporate renewable energy in Asia. During the webinars we will look at the market opportunities and bottlenecks for corporations to power their operations with renewable energy.
