Asia Clean Energy Forum (ACEF) 2022 will gather the Asia clean energy community once again—for the 17th time since its inception in 2006—to share and explore both proven and new ideas to accelerate the low-carbon energy transition in Asia and the Pacific. The discussions and agreements reached at ACEF 2022 will help to operationalize ADB’s 2021 Energy Policy, which aims to promote a low-carbon transition in the region while supporting universal access to reliable and affordable energy services. It is in line with ADB’s Strategy 2030 of creating a prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable Asia and the Pacific, while eradicating extreme poverty.
ACEF 2022 will be conducted virtually during 14 – 17 June 2022, with two, 90-minute sessions during the day, and partner-hosted Side Events in the evenings. This event is organised by Asian Development Bank (ADB), and co-organised by USAID and Korea Energy Agency.
ORION Clean Energy Project will be presented on 16th June during the Deep Dive Workshop: The Future of Ocean Energy and Hydrogen - Just Transition to a Safer World session. This session will be held at 7:00am GMT.
