The global energy transition and digital transformation are creating new opportunities for ASEAN Member States to strengthen their economies, diversify production, and capture greater value from their natural resources.
As demand for technologies such as batteries, semiconductors, and renewable energy systems grows, governments face important policy choices about how to participate in these evolving value chains.
This series of case studies from ASEAN and the IGF examines value chains across five strategic sectors: semiconductors, batteries, electromobility, solar photovoltaics, and wind energy technology. The studies explore opportunities for economic development, industrial upgrading, and value addition, while considering the policy frameworks and governance approaches needed to support these ambitions.
Designed for policy-makers and other stakeholders across the region, the case studies will provide insights to help governments assess emerging opportunities, identify potential challenges, and develop strategies that align industrial development with national priorities and sustainable development objectives.
The remaining case studies, covering electromobility, solar, and wind, will be published soon.
