VIENTIANE -- The ASEAN Center for Energy (ACE) launched the eighth ASEAN Energy Outlook (AEO8) to support the region's long-term energy vision, aiming to achieve a more resilient and sustainable energy future for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

The report provided a comprehensive analysis of each program in the energy landscape across ASEAN, outlining pathways to achieve national and regional energy targets to 2050, Lao News Agency reported on Monday.

"As the ASEAN Chairman this year, Laos recognizes the importance of AEO8 as a fundamental guide in our journey towards achieving resilient and sustainable energy future. This report not only aligns with our national objectives but also reinforces ASEAN's shared vision for sustainable development," Lao Minister of Energy and Mines Phoxay Sayasone said at the 42nd ASEAN Ministers on Energy Meeting.

Building on the seventh ASEAN Energy Outlook (AEO7), AEO8 offers a more comprehensive analysis and projections for each energy sector in ASEAN, ranging from electricity to energy efficiency, covering the period from 2022 to 2050 and aligning with ASEAN's efforts to carbon neutrality.
