The energy transition in Asia Pacific, home to over 4.3 billion people, is more than just a shift to renewables — it’s a transformative moment that will impact millions of lives. While the region could create over 20 million jobs by 2030, many workers, marginalised communities, and SMEs risk being left behind if we don’t address the social side of this change.
To address these issues, Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and AVPN jointly published the report The People-Centric Energy Transition in Asia Pacific: The Now, The How, and The Future to emphasise the often-overlooked social dimensions of the energy transition. The research frames actionable insights on how to put workers, communities, consumers, and SMEs at the heart of this transformation. Featuring real-world examples and interviews with over 30 stakeholders across the region, and outlines challenges and solutions for ensuring a truly equitable transition.
The report also sets the stage for developing a Collective Action Platform designed to unite governments, investors, and social enterprises in scaling People-Centric solutions. This platform will drive collective action, unlock funding, and foster innovation to ensure that the benefits of the energy transition are equitably shared, leaving no one behind.
