ARE pushes for distributed renewables to power the decarbonisation of Asia-Pacific
ARE joined the Asia Clean Energy Summit, which took place in Singapore on 28-30 October 2025.
ARE CEO David Lecoque, Regional Expert Natasha Allen, and Board Members Ayu Abdullah (COMET), and Sandra Liz Hon (H2 Energy) attended the event on site to champion distributed renewable energy (DRE) solutions throughout the event.
During the summit, ARE underlined how DRE is ready to power the decarbonisation of Asia-Pacific and connected with Asian Development Bank (ADB) leadership and other major regional actors to deepen its engagement and footprint in the region.
For the first time ever, ARE held a workshop at the Summit together with ADB, the Korea Energy Agency, and Sustainable Energy Association of Singapore on distributed renewable energy innovations, featuring expertise from ARE Members ion Ventures, COMET – Community Energy Toolkit, SkySails Power, and H2 Energy.
ARE’s active participation in this event demonstrated its strong commitment to the region, particularly through the work of the ARE Southeast Asia Working Group.
