In Southeast Asia, the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) for solar PV ranges between $70 and $95 per megawatt-hour (MWh), making it just as viable as coal, which costs between $80 and $120 per MWh, and natural gas turbines, which range from $80 to $125 per MWh..

Investments into low-emissions power in Southeast Asia have steadily increased since 2021, and are expected to surpass USD 19 billion in 2025. However, this remains well below the potential implied by the region’s resource base and its announced climate and energy targets. Getting on track for. .
The costs of renewable energy-based electricity generation have fallen precipitously in recent years to levels that are increasingly competitive with traditional generation such as fossil fuel-based generation. As these costs become increasingly competitive, private developers, policymakers, and. .
The International Energy Agency (IEA) says the cost of capital for solar remains higher in Southeast Asian countries than it does in other emerging and developing economies. Reducing the cost of capital is critical to unlocking further solar investment in southeast Asia, according to analysis by. .

Southeast Asia’s solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity could generate over 45,000 terawatt-hours (TWh) annually—far exceeding the region’s current total electricity generation of 1,158 TWh. Onshore wind resources are also significant, with an estimated potential of 1,400 GW, capable of producing more.
