1. Strong Government Support
ASEAN governments are actively promoting bioenergy as part of their national energy transition strategies. Policies supporting agricultural waste utilization, rural electrification, and carbon neutrality are driving demand for modern biomass technologies. Countries like Thailand, Malaysia, and Vietnam have introduced dedicated biomass development roadmaps to accelerate renewable integration.
2. Rising Role of Biomass in the Energy Mix
Modern biomass, alongside geothermal energy, contributes a significant share to ASEAN’s renewable energy portfolio. With rich agricultural resources and an urgent need to reduce fossil fuel dependency, biomass is playing an increasingly important role in the region’s energy diversification strategy.
3. Rapid Growth in Energy Demand
ASEAN's power demand is projected to increase by over 30% by 2030, with a 3.6% annual growth rate. Bioenergy offers a reliable and decentralized solution to meet this growing demand while reducing carbon emissions and improving energy access, especially in rural and off-grid areas.
4. Wide Range of Applications
Biomass energy systems serve diverse applications, including agricultural waste processing, rural electrification, industrial heat recovery, carbon credits, and beyond. This diversity provides exhibitors with access to multiple market segments and opportunities to scale across ASEAN’s fast-growing clean energy landscape.
5. Proven Success of Regional Biomass Events
Major biomass-related exhibitions and conferences in the region have demonstrated strong industry interest. ABEE 2026 will build on this momentum by offering a more comprehensive, trade-focused platform.
