ASIA URBAN ENERGY ASSEMBLY

The Asia Urban Energy Assembly will be held as an in-person international two-day event 15-16 September 2022 in Bangkok, Thailand.

The Asia Urban Energy Assembly is facilitating dialogues on sustainable urban energy topics between energy professionals, government agencies, city representatives, and investors. The theme of the event is “Towards a carbon-neutral future”, covering Smart Energy City (SEC), Multi Energy Systems (MES), District Energy (DE), and related energy topics.

This is the first time the event is held in the Asia-Pacific, which offers excellent opportunities for regional actors to promote their offerings and references for the international District Energy community.

The two day event will gather government officials, international organisations, city representatives, planning agencies, utility executives, financial and legal experts, planners, developers, design institutes, investors, academia and domestic and international sector associations among many others.

Read the APUEA magazine

In this issue, we share insights on how to prepare the world’s workforce for the green economy, what the Glasgow climate pact after COP26 means for cities, and how integration is critical to Asia’s decarbonization. In the magazine, you can also read about sustainability developments in India’s Real Estate sector, if the energy transition is on track, and that part of the solution to decarbonize Asian cities is right under our feet. We also present an update on APUEA’s past and future activities and events. The magazine includes articles from the Higher Education Sustainability Initiative (HESI), C40 Cities, Black & Veatch, Tabreed, REN21, NXITY, Applied Energy, and APUEA.

Global District Energy Climate Awards – Initiative

Launched in 2009, the Global District Energy Climate Awards recognise systems that illustrate the overall importance of District Energy (heating & cooling) in providing sustainable energy solutions.

Information from previous editions of the GDECA ceremony can be viewed in the archive section.

Some impressions:

The International District Cooling and Heating conference in Doha in October provided an excellent possibility for networking and promoted the knowledge and technology exchange of district cooling. It was a great opportunity to present Sweden’s longstanding and advanced technology in both district cooling and heating. The Global District Energy Climate Award highlighted even more the importance of what district heating & cooling can do to reduce global warming! Euroheat & Power is skilled and has a key role to drive the development of district energy forward by continuing to successfully identify relevant initiatives and support the industry outside the EU! Euroheat & Power provides top-range business and regulation intelligence, represents the interest of the DHC sector in the European policy market and provides a platform for open exchange beyond Europe. Thank you for the excellent organization - Congratulations to a very successful conference!
