DNV offers a data-driven roadmap for scaling these new energy commodities (NECs) across APAC, providing insights for policymakers, investors and industry leaders navigating the energy transition.

What you will learn

  • The big picture: How NECs can deliver up to 28% of APAC’s emissions reductions, especially in hard-to-electrify sectors like aviation, maritime, steel and cement.
  • Trade and infrastructure: Why 81% of NECs will be traded across borders and what it will take to build the infrastructure: 12 billion solar panels, 2.7 million wind turbines, 189 ports and 1,221 carriers.
  • Country and sector deep dives: Explore demand forecasts and trade dynamics for key countries including Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Indonesia and Australia.
  • Policy and finance levers: Understand the USD 386/tCO₂ abatement cost challenge and the policy tools, carbon pricing, blended finance, harmonized standards - needed to close the gap.
  • Strategic pathways: Discover pragmatic, regionally coordinated strategies to unlock NECs potential and build resilient, low-carbon supply chains.
