Unlocking ASEAN’s $2.4 Trillion Investment Opportunity in the Energy Transition

Unlocking ASEAN’s $2.4 Trillion Investment Opportunity in the Energy Transition

Unlocking ASEAN’s $2.4 Trillion Investment Opportunity in the Energy Transition

The global clean energy transition is not just an environmental imperative—it’s an economic one. With ASEAN and Asia at the forefront of global energy demand growth, mobilizing $2.4 trillion in investment by or before 2050 is essential to meeting sustainability and energy security goals.

The Financing Zero Summit  is designed as a premier convening platform for decision-makers across finance, energy, infrastructure, and policy, bringing together the capital and expertise needed to finance Asia’s net-zero future.

A Critical Moment for Investment

  • Global clean energy investment is projected to exceed $3 trillion annually by 2030, with ASEAN requiring at least $1.3 trillion per year.

  • Over 60% of ASEAN’s energy financing still relies on public funding. The private sector’s role must be dramatically expanded through innovative financing structures.

  • Key net-zero transition challenges, such as funding infrastructure, reducing financing risks, and ensuring a just transition, require urgent solutions.

By bringing together governments, investors, project developers, and industry pioneers, Financing Zero will unlock new funding opportunities and establish ASEAN as the world’s next clean energy investment powerhouse.
