ASEAN-Japan collaboration on biomass energy towards low carbon society and SDGs

Abstract

After proposing “Biomass Asia Strategy” and arranging “Biomass Asia Workshop”, we have promoted bilateral collaboration of biomass energy between ASEAN countries and Japan under support of NEDO, JICA and JST. We also discussed region wide collaboration on biomass energy at “International Policy Dialogue”. After Paris Agreement, our “Biomass-Asia Project Team” in the Engineering Academy of Japan made the policy proposal to ASEAN countries. Now we are promoting our e-ASIA project among ASEAN countries and Japan (Feasibility Study on Social Implementation of Bioenergy in East Asia) as international industry-academia-government collaboration.
