ASEAN solar Energy Storage Policy

4 FAQs about ASEAN solar Energy Storage Policy

Can energy storage technologies be a policy framework for ASEAN?

A detailed study on policy aspects and status of energy storage technologies in the context of ASEAN can be future work. Foreseeing the massive RE growth and adoption of electric vehicles, a robust policy framework for energy storage facilities is anticipated in the near future.

Are solar policies in ASEAN prone to termination/modification?

Government policies and schemes are prone to termination/modification. Since policies keep changing with economic and political scenarios, an updated overview of solar policies in ASEAN is always needed. While few literatures reported solar policy in the context of ASEAN, the present study is intended to provide new knowledge in two main ways.

Are there support mechanisms for solar PV development in ASEAN countries?

ASEAN countries are expected to have substantial growth in solar PV deployment. The PV market in the ASEAN region has not evolved into a solid, self-sustaining PV market. Hence there is a necessity for policies and support mechanisms in ASEAN countries. Fig. 1. Different types of support mechanisms for solar PV development. 3.1.

Does ASEAN still have a policy architecture?

But the underlying policy architecture has not kept pace. ASEAN still lacks harmonized rules for renewable energy certificates, emissions factors, and carbon accounting. Without regulatory coherence, electricity may flow, but markets won't move.
