Powering the Global South: Dynamics of Energy Security in Southeast Asia and Implications for India
Energy Security, Southeast Asia, ASEAN, India, Global South
As the world undergoes a transformative shift from agriculture to industrialisation, its rapid economic growth becomes a key driver for global economic expansion and heightened energy demand. With a projected population increase and a burgeoning regional GDP, Southeast Asia is poised to face challenges such as energy security risks, escalating energy costs, and accelerated climate changes. This paper delves into the critical examination of energy dynamics in the Southeast Asian countries against the backdrop of global energy trends. It also highlights the imperative for emerging economies and developing countries to play a more rapid role in decarbonisation and energy transition as it has been contributing significantly to global carbon dioxide emissions by relying heavily on fossil fuel consumption. Underscoring the interconnectedness of Southeast Asian countries, the paper analyses regional policies and their profound socioeconomic impacts through the functionings of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). India’s significant role as a regional power reflecting its prospects as leader of the Global South through various diplomatic, economic and strategic initiatives contributes to stability, cooperation, and sustainable development in the region. The paper aims to provide insights into the intricate web of regional energy vitality, fostering a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities for greater integration in the pursuit of sustainable energy practices.
