Leadership Dialogue 2: Advancing Energy Responsibly: Scaling Techno-Commercial Pathways
In an era shaped by converging global dynamics — where energy supply, demand, economic and population growth intersect – Asia Pacific is driving forward energy security while enabling scalable decarbonisation across the region.
This senior level discussion will explore how the region can and is navigating this complexity by scaling promising technologies and solutions that balance near-term priorities with long-term business and sustainability goals.
It will spotlight the expanding role of natural gas and LNG as strategic enablers of long-term energy reliability, while framing decarbonisation pathways - spanning CCUS, renewables, electrification, and advanced technologies - with an emphasis on scaling solutions that deliver impact across the value chain.
Leaders will share perspectives on progressing the journey from pilot initiatives to large-scale deployment, and address regulatory frameworks, infrastructure readiness, and financing mechanisms needed to unlock techno-commercial adoption. This includes the development of CO₂ business ecosystems and market instruments as levers for unlocking investment and commercial viability.
The dialogue will further explore how policy coherence, energy diversification and multi-sector, cross-border partnerships can shape a resilient path forward.
Discussion themes include:
- The evolving role of gas and LNG as both transition and destination fuels - driving integration and complementing long-term, low-carbon energy strategies
- Scaling decarbonisation: CCUS, the CO2 business and the carbon economy
- Integrating sources: Renewables, electrification, and advanced technologies to build flexible, diversified, and low-emission production systems
- Advancing from pilot to adoption – opportunities in infrastructure investment, regulatory frameworks, supply chain value creation, and industry models that enable scalable deployment
- How Asia can lead in building resilient, low-carbon, and commercially viable energy ecosystem
