Sustainable economies will own the future
The Covid-19 pandemic and the wars in Ukraine and Iran have reframed the issue of sustainability, which is now as much about sovereignty and economic security as it is about planetary health. Countries and companies that fail to recognise this have everything to lose in the coming years.
While tensions around the Strait of Hormuz are rattling global oil markets, energy security is no longer defined solely by access to fossil fuels. What China has understood, and Europe has not, is that security now depends on electricity systems that can deliver low-cost power at scale and support heavy industry.
Now is the time to double down on renewable energy and electrification.
Long treated in Southeast Asia as a distant or theoretical possibility, nuclear power is quietly returning to regional policy discussions, as the risks of energy shortfalls, price instability and system fragility are becoming harder to ignore.
