Project Overview

Green Finance and Energy Transition in ASEAN provides a comprehensive analysis of how Southeast Asian economies can accelerate their energy transitions and achieve carbon neutrality through innovative financial strategies. The book explores the role of green finance in phasing out fossil fuels, advancing energy efficiency, and mobilising sustainable investment across the region.

It examines a diverse range of financing mechanisms, green bonds, green Sukuk, transition finance, and foreign direct investment, while assessing their potential to support renewable energy, an optimal fuel mix, and cross-border power trade. By linking regional initiatives with global financial systems, the book highlights opportunities for aligning ASEAN’s carbon-neutral pathways with international climate goals.

Drawing on both theoretical and applied perspectives, it offers actionable insights for policymakers, academics, industry professionals, and financial institutions. The volume serves as an essential reference for designing effective policies, fostering sustainable investments, and ensuring a just and resilient low-carbon energy future for ASEAN.
