Status: Completed. This project provides guidance to ASEAN policy makers and to build their capacity on how to develop, adopt and enforce regionally appropriate policies and programmes with the support of long-term roadmaps for the ASEAN region indicating the targets and actions required in the short, medium and long-term. This project helps address increasing energy demand and emissions and improve collaboration between stakeholders in ASEAN, by developing: a) Roadmap for Energy-Efficient Buildings and Construction in ASEAN which focuses on the policy tools available for ASEAN Member States to drive energy efficiency improvements in the building sector to help meet growing needs for residential and non-residential floor space and energy services, while limiting the growth in energy demand and related emissions. b) Roadmap Towards Sustainable and Energy-Efficient Space Cooling in ASEAN which focuses on the policy tools available for ASEAN Member States to drive energy efficiency improvements for space cooling. It sets ambitious milestones for space cooling technologies, including air conditioners and fans, that can help guide the ambitions outlined in this roadmap and subsequent action across ASEAN. The project was implemented through collaboration with the International Energy Agency...

Status: Ongoing By end 2020, ASEAN is expected to: (i) conclude the implementation of the ongoing ASEAN Minerals Cooperation Action Plan (AMCAP-III) Phase 1: 2016-2020 with the delivery of a well-maintained, and up-to-date minerals database and information system, and, (ii) adopt a new AMCAP-III Phase 2: 2021-2025 as the next blueprint for ASEAN minerals cooperation. This project proposes to help meet these requirements through the conduct of: (i) a study on the Development Prospects of ASEAN Minerals Cooperation (DPAMC), and, (ii) scoping and analysis to design an enhanced ASEAN Minerals Database and Information System (AMDIS). Component 1 will produce a report to stock-take existing ASEAN minerals development and cooperation and propose corresponding regional strategies and measures to pursue the study’s recommendations under AMCAP Phase 2. Component 2 will serve as an initial step to eventually deliver an enhanced AMDIS that shall serve as the central repository and primary communication platform for ASEAN minerals cooperation as well as in minerals trade and investment. The project will contribute to ASEAN’s goal of facilitating trade and investment in minerals and deepening the contribution of the sector towards ASEAN Economic Integration.

Status: Completed. As efforts towards multilateral power trading in ASEAN gains momentum, ensuring that the key supporting institutions necessary to design and implement the market design have the same understanding of issues and have sufficient capacity is essential. Based on the results of the “Feasibility Study for ASEAN Multilateral Power Trade (MPT)” project, this includes regional institutions which will foster increased cooperation and coordination to implement multilateral power trading. They can also potentially support better knowledge management through sharing good practices and capacity building. This project enhance the capacity of the ASEAN Secretariat, specifically the Energy and Minerals Division, to support ASEAN Members States on initiating multilateral electricity trading in the APG, including drafting a recommended institutional design for the ASEAN Energy Regulators Network (AERN) or an alternative regulatory mechanism.
