Given the urgency of the energy transition, the need for more renewables capacity in Asia is clear. But what does the future of the industry look like, and how can the export, project, and development finance worlds work together to bring financing where its needed?

  • What does the pipeline for renewables look like in Asia, and what are the region's primary financing needs? 
  • How can ECAs, DFIs, and investors collaborate to bring more projects to market? 
  • Wind, solar, and geothermal are all big players in Asia's renewables market - what general trends are we seeing across these assets, and what should we expect to see moving forward? 
  • Asia is seeing a spate of large renewables auctions, but lots of capacity is going to just a few key players - will this slow growth across the region?
