WINDS OF CHANGE: East Asia's Sustainable Energy Future

This flagship report suggests the strategic direction for the region to get onto a sustainable energy path over the next two decades, and presents policy tools and financing mechanisms to get there. The main conclusion is that such a path of maintaining economic growth, mitigating climate change, and improving energy security is within reach of the region’s countries. However, what is required is a paradigm shift to a new low carbon development model.
