How is ASEAN reshaping the power grid?

ion, and Control Wide-Area Monitoring SystemExecutive SummaryIn recent years, the ASEAN’s power grid landscape is evolving. The integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs), such as rooftop solar photo ltaics (PV) systems and battery energy storage, is reshaping ASEAN’s power systems by increasing flexibility and resilience.

Could Singapore sit at the 'core' of new energy grids in Southeast Asia?

Singapore could sit at the “core” of new regional electricity grids in Southeast Asia, with proposed interconnections to neighbouring countries set to bring 25GW of new renewable power and energy storage projects online. This is according to Rystad Energy, which published a report into Singapore’s role in the Southeast Asian energy mix this week.

Why did solar capacity increase in Southeast Asia?

The capacity increases around 2012 were primarily due to hydropower projects coming online, such as Southeast Asia’s largest hydropower plant at the Son La Dam. The increases around 2019 were driven by the addition of solar capacity – both PV distributed systems and utility-scale systems.

Does Singapore have a role in Southeast Asian energy mix?

This is according to Rystad Energy, which published a report into Singapore’s role in the Southeast Asian energy mix this week. The report notes that Singapore already has hydropower and solar PV projects connected to Thailand and Laos, and that other connections have been proposed including other countries and technologies.
