This is among the findings of a survey conducted by the Sustainable Energy Association of Singapore . 64% of respondents also cited weak government strategies as the top barrier to the energy transition followed by difficulty in implementing cross-border initiatives.
Also of interest is the ongoing discussion around the realities of an ASEAN power grid to enhance cross-border energy trade and connectivity. On making an ASEAN common power grid a reality, respondents showed unanimous agreement in stating that greater cross-border collaboration was required with an ASEAN-wide treaty , cross-border consortiums and bilateral country agreements as top solutions.
