Solar and wind energy can potentially meet up to 30% of Southeast Asia's data centre electricity requirements in 2030, without the need for battery storage, as detailed in a report by energy think tank Ember. . Part of the book series: Economics, Law, and Institutions in Asia Pacific ( (ELIAP)) Achieving carbon neutrality will require multiple approaches to decarbonizing greenhouse gas emissions across all sectors. Accordingly, this study investigates the maximum contributions of solar and wind. . A new report by energy think tank EMBER reveals that solar and wind energy could supply up to 30 percent of the electricity demand for data centers across Southeast Asia by 2030 amid surging digital infrastructure growth. The report, titled "From AI to emissions: Aligning ASEAN's digital growth. . The report identifies Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam as emerging global data centre hotspots. Emissions from Malaysia's data centres could increase sevenfold, reaching 40 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent by 2030.
