SIPET aims to create a community of energy transition stakeholders in the region to encourage knowledge SHARING and collaboration. Each month, we feature brief interviews of SIPET community members actively working to reduce the impacts of climate change and accelerate the transition towards clean, affordable, and secure energy for Southeast Asia.
These interviews highlight SIPET members’ work, what they consider milestones, what they are most proud of, and how SIPET can help.

Renewable energy is energy derived from natural sources that are replenished at a higher rate than they are consumed. Sunlight and wind, for example, are such sources that are constantly being replenished. Renewable energy sources are plentiful and all around us.
Renewables are now cheaper in most countries, and generate three times more jobs than fossil fuels.
