It suggests various policy recommendations on how to increase the share of renewable energy resources in the energy baskets of the members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the rest of the world to ensure energy sustainability. As of 2020, most of the world?s energy investment still went to carbon-emitting sources, namely, fossil fuels. On the other hand, the Covid-19 pandemic and the economic Project Overview 20 March 2021 08:39 Page 6 of 9 downturns shrank the global energy demand, including fossil fuels, resulting in a sharp drop in their prices. Low fossil fuel prices are harmful to developing renewable energy projects, making solar, wind, and other renewable energy resources less competitive as sources of electricity. Thisis endangering the Paris agreement and the ?Climate Action? goal of the United Nations. Given the high share of fossil fuels in the energy mix of the members of ASEAN, tremendous challenges must be faced for their energy transition in the post-Covid-19 world. The authors call for sound policy and applicable technologies to ensure sustainable energy availability, accessibility, and affordability to reach emission reduction targets. 410 0$aEconomics, Law, and Institutions in Asia Pacific,$x2199-8639 606 $aPower resources 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aEnergy and state 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEnvironmental economics 606 $aNatural Resource and Energy Economics 606 $aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEnvironmental Economics 615 0$aPower resources. 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 0$aEnergy and state. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aEnvironmental economics. 615 14$aNatural Resource and Energy Economics. 615 24$aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management. 615 24$aSustainability. 615 24$aEnvironmental Economics. 676 $a363.738740959 702 $aHan$b Phoumin 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910492145703321 996 $aEnergy sustainability and climate change in ASEAN$92820868 997 $aUNINA
