A Pan-Asian Energy Infrastructure

 

By 2050, Asia could be served by a vast energy and information network.

 

This 'Pan-Asian Energy Infrastructure' would transport low-emission energy up and down the hemisphere, serving a market of two billion people.

 

The benefits are hard to overstate: less volatile energy prices, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, improved geopolitical stability, supercharged innovation and deepened rural electrification.

 

The initial bits of this 'Pan-Asian Energy Infrastructure' are already being built.

 

They have names like the Trans-ASEAN Gas Pipeline, Trans-ASEAN Electricity Grid, China Fiber Optic City, Palapa Ring (Indonesia), and the National Broadband Network (Australia).

 

Linked together, they will provide Asia with a critical energy and data infrastructure that could last a century or more.

 

They will create in Asia a GReen RENaissance through Advanced TEChnology -- or 'Grenatec.'

A Pan-Asian Gas Pipeline: A Better Deal Than Liquid Natural Gas

A Pan-Asian Gas Pipeline network may prove more efficient over the long-term than the liquid natural gas infrastructure now planned for the region. Nearly $200 billion of LNG infrastructure is now targeted for Asia. The bulk is aimed at transporting Australian gas to Northeast Asia. This infrastructure would shift roughly 60 billion cubic meters of[...] Read more »

‘Cloud Energy’ Can Solve Climate Change

  The future ‘cloud energy’ revolution needed to solve climate change requires three things: data, power lines and markets. All three are in place. The key now is to make them work together. In the past 20 years, fiber optics cables have revolutionised the data industry. Today, ‘cloud computing’ makes infinite computing power available anywhere [...] Read more »

Australia: Totally Left Out of the Asian Century?

The Gillard Government’s ‘Australia in the Asian Century’  encourages deeper ties between Australian and its region. But what it leaves out is  the most obvious and compelling tie possible between Australia and Asia:  linking the region’s energy networks together. This will increase economic grow[...] Read more »
