Are solar PV policies underutilized in South East Asian countries?

South East Asian countries are blessed with abundant solar energy potential. Yet, the solar photovoltaic potential remains underutilized. There are certain roadblocks in the progress of solar PV deployment in ASEAN. This paper aims to investigate the solar PV policies in the ASEAN region over the past decade.

Are there support mechanisms for solar PV development in ASEAN countries?

ASEAN countries are expected to have substantial growth in solar PV deployment. The PV market in the ASEAN region has not evolved into a solid, self-sustaining PV market. Hence there is a necessity for policies and support mechanisms in ASEAN countries. Fig. 1. Different types of support mechanisms for solar PV development. 3.1.

Does South East Asia have a solar PV market?

The South East Asia region is an emerging photovoltaic market at its early-stage growth. ASEAN countries are expected to have substantial growth in solar PV deployment. The PV market in the ASEAN region has not evolved into a solid, self-sustaining PV market. Hence there is a necessity for policies and support mechanisms in ASEAN countries. Fig. 1.

Can energy storage technologies be a policy framework for ASEAN?

A detailed study on policy aspects and status of energy storage technologies in the context of ASEAN can be future work. Foreseeing the massive RE growth and adoption of electric vehicles, a robust policy framework for energy storage facilities is anticipated in the near future.

What is Malaysia's solar leasing policy?

Malaysia implemented a solar leasing policy in January 2019, . This mechanism is based on the Supply Agreement with Renewable Energy (SARE). Solar Power Purchase Agreement, Solar Hybrid, and Solar Lease are the three types of the solar solution under SARE.

Is solar PV growth dependent on regulatory policies?

In spite of solar irradiation advantage and plummeting solar system cost, it was understood that solar PV growth is greatly dependent on regulatory policies and mechanisms. The tremendous growth in solar PV is observed in Vietnam through the successful implementation of the Feed-in-Tariff (FiT) scheme.
