Open-source tech in ASEAN’s energy transition 🌏

At the 25th ASEAN Energy Business Forum in Kuala Lumpur, our team presented #PyPSA-ASEAN — a PyPSA-Earth-based, open-source model for energy system planning in Southeast Asia.

We had great conversations about exploring open-source possibilities in the region, and we’re happy to support transparency and cooperation in energy planning practices.

Let’s build ASEAN’s open-source energy future together.
