It has been reported that Solar irradiance in Southeast Asia in 2023 was 10% higher than long-term averages.

Basically, SEA is the ideal location to build a solar farm! The solar business in SEA will just continue to grow and so will ANORA as we support their risk management needs.

Solar irradiance in Southeast Asia last year was 10% higher than long-term averages - the best-performing region across the globe - according to Solargis.

With energy prices increasing, solar power has become a more common source of energy for consumers in Australia. In SEA countries this is bound to increase in the coming years too. Good for the environment and also our pockets.

Data shows 2023 had second-highest record of rooftop solar installations as small-scale solar continues to grow

To all our clients, business partners and valued colleagues, wishing all a Happy 2024 New Year!

ANORA deeply appreciates all your support and encouragement in the past year.

We are thankful for 2023’s accomplishments and eagerly look forward to 2024’s brightest achievements with your continued support.

As we wrap up the year, it’s key to note that 2023 saw record-breaking solar output. Solar is now the cheapest form of electricity in a majority of countries.

Going at this pace, 2024 will also be a great year for solar power and ANORA is well positioned to support this growth in APAC.

This year saw record-breaking solar output and a 'momentous shift’ in battery production.

From all of us at ANORA,

Whatever is beautiful, whatever is meaningful, whatever brings you happiness, may it be yours this Christmas holiday and throughout the coming year.

MERRY CHRISTMAS !

This is interesting news. With China accounting for 80% of global solar manufacturing capacity and costs dropping, it will drive up the use of solar panels usage.

Solar energy is not only for the large investment heavy farms but also for homes and buildings. With drive towards a low carbon economy, the market is set to grow rapidly in the next few years.

China's cost to produce solar panels has plummeted 42% in the last year, according to a report published on Thursday, giving manufacturers there an enormous advantage over rivals in places like the United States and Europe.

STATE OF SOLAR ENERGY IN ASEAN

The recent COP28 vowed to triple renewable energy means for Asia. This translates to significant increases in solar energy infrastructure and greater opportunities for ASEAN.

As countries focus on reducing emissions and increasing renewable energy, the geopolitics of energy is shifting towards regions with a competitive edge in clean technologies.

For Southeast Asia, a region of rapidly growing emerging economies committed to addressing climate change, this trend offers both challenges and opportunities.

ASEAN has yet to establish itself as a leader in clean energy, but progress has been made in terms of pledges and installations. Solar energy has gained mainstream policy support in most ASEAN member states, with Vietnam adding almost 20 gigawatts of solar energy capacity in just four years. Thailand and Indonesia have also made significant progress. Notably, Indonesia recently inaugurated a 192 megawatt peak (MWp) floating solar power plant on a reservoir as part of a drive to increase renewable energy sources.

Southeast Asia currently has the capacity to produce 69 GW worth of solar power modules and components. Thailand, Vietnam and Malaysia account for about 10% of global solar cell and module production. The capacity gap has attracted interest from global investors and efforts are being made to establish manufacturing bases in Southeast Asia.

Regional cooperation in the energy sector has been limited, with plans for an ASEAN Power Grid progressing slowly and energy trading remaining minimal. The ASEAN Plan of Action for Energy Cooperation has been viewed as lacking a real regional strategy.

However, there are signs of a shift towards a regional approach. Singapore and Indonesia have signed a pact focused on green energy industrial cooperation, including the development of a floating solar farm and solar cell and module factories. Singapore has also secured a clean energy trade agreement with Cambodia. Increased cooperation will be needed to boost ASEAN's solar leadership, including technology exchanges, investment facilitation and collaboration to expand exports to other countries.

To ensure the region's power system can accommodate more solar energy, solid grid interconnectivity between countries, increased storage capacity and power system flexibility will be crucial. The International Renewable Energy Agency estimates that Southeast Asia will need to install 240 GW of solar energy by 2030, highlighting the growing demand for solar photovoltaic modules in the region.

In order to guarantee a steady source of solar cell and module supplies, Southeast Asian nations can work together to establish the region as a production hub, leveraging each country's existing industries.

Let’s not forget that with more infrastructure comes more risk. Therefore risk management and well defined insurance programs with a mix of parametric and indemnity insurance needs to be deployed.
