Against this backdrop, ASEAN has also established ambitious goals for decarbonization and renewable energy development. The ASEAN Plan of Action for Energy Cooperation (APAEC) Phase 2 aims for a 23% share of renewable energy in the total primary energy supply (TPES) and a 35% share of renewable energy in the region's installed power capacity by 2025.
The huge market potential has attracted heightened attention from an expanding array of global stakeholders, where NaaS seizes this opportunity well and makes prominent proceeds.
