Faced with energy transition objectives, the ten countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) have technology options to decarbonize power sector. This study investigates the hypothetical decarbonization pathways for ASEAN’s power sector.
The data used in this study are collected from various sources. Each ASEAN country is viewed as a power system with country-specific electricity demand and emission targets required by its NDC.
To facilitate investments in renewables in ASEAN, it is critical to overcoming the barriers in renewable energy legislation, energy governance, and business environment. 28 Cooperation through the ASEAN Power Grid brings economic benefits to the region as a whole, and thus improves the affordability for energy transition.
The 2050 goal profoundly impacts the ASEAN power system even in the early stages, with renewable penetration exceeding 60% as of 2030, indicating a rapid expansion of renewable power generation will be needed in the near term. Solar power generation amounts to 615 TWh in 2030 and grows steadily thereafter to a total of 1,875 TWh in 2050.
However, achieving net-zero emissions requires an accelerated transition toward renewable energy, reaching 92% in ASEAN’s 2050 generation mix, of which solar power accounts for 47.2%.
All ASEAN countries are included in the planned transmission network, in which net electricity imports can account for up to 60% of domestic electricity demand, for example, for Singapore. 23 The limits of electricity imports and exports vary across countries (see the scenario development section in supplemental information).
The global residential solar storage and inverter market is experiencing rapid expansion, with demand increasing by over 300% in the past three years. Home energy storage solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new residential solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 38% market share, driven by homeowner energy independence goals and federal tax credits that reduce total system costs by 26-30%. Europe follows with 32% market share, where standardized home storage designs have cut installation timelines by 55% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets are adopting residential storage for backup power and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 4-7 years. Modern home installations now feature integrated systems with 10-30kWh capacity at costs below $700/kWh for complete residential energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving home solar storage and inverter performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal performance with 40% less energy loss, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $1,200/kW to $650/kW since 2022. Smart integration features now allow home systems to operate as virtual power plants, increasing homeowner savings by 35% through time-of-use optimization and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage protection and thermal management systems have reduced insurance premiums by 25% for solar storage installations. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple battery additions at just $600/kWh for incremental storage. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with residential projects typically achieving payback in 5-8 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard home systems (5-10kWh) starting at $8,000 and premium systems (15-20kWh) from $12,000, with financing options available for homeowners.
