Thematic Tracks

Future Energy Options

This thematic track focuses on examining present and emerging energy resources and technologies and identifying development trends of the global energy industry. Through engaging our strategic partners, this thematic track provides a continuous update on the latest developments in technologies and projects in energy.

Energy Transition Pathways

This thematic track focuses on evaluating the costs and benefits of transitioning from a fossil-based energy economy to a resilient carbon-free energy economy powered by future energy options in a science-based and data-driven modelling analysis approach.

Smart Energy Ecosystem

This thematic track focuses on mapping energy technologies and resources, and key stakeholders in the value chain to identify synergy in cross-sectoral and cross-industry collaboration in creating an innovation ecosystem for enabling future energy transition pathways.

Sustainable Finance

This thematic track focuses on developing innovative ESG (environment, social and governance) financing models or mechanisms for energy related projects. The objective is to foster an inclusive sustainability taxonomy.

Policy and Strategy

This thematic track focuses on identifying policy and strategic issues in transitioning towards a sustainable energy economy and translating national and global policy objectives into energy industry development strategies through engaging our stakeholders and partners.


Special Tracks

Hydrogen Economy

This special thematic track focuses on the following:

  • Examine the ongoing developments in the global hydrogen industry.
  • Evaluate the potentials and implications of hydrogen as an alternative fuel.
  • Identify gaps in technology and infrastructure developments for hydrogen and ammonia.

Maritime Decarbonisation

Maritime Decarbonisation

Maritime Decarbonisation

This special thematic track focuses on the following:

  • Identify and examine future sustainable marine fuel options.
  • Identify gaps in the supply chain for sustainable marine fuel options.
  • Evaluate opportunities and risks in technology and infrastructure investments. 

Centre of Excellence in Energy Systems Analysis

What makes an ideal, plausible, or most probable future?

Strategic long-term scenario planning and analysis hold the key to unlock a sustainable carbon-free economy for our future generations. Living in the comfort of a fossil-dominated economy, we face a multitude of challenges and risks to decouple economic growth with the use of fossil fuels. Policymakers are troubled with the question about "what it takes for countries to move away from the coal, oil and gas economy". Our Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Energy Systems Analysis is here to help countries and regions around the world to accelerate their energy transition journey through in-depth and unbiased modelling analysis of future scenarios to help government departments and the industries make informed decisions on the path towards net-zero. Thanks to a joint force with UNiLAB on Integrated Systems Analysis Tools, our CoE is supported by an international team of more than 15 modelling experts.

Long-term Scenario Planning

Our long-term scenario planning helps policymakers identify and examine possible future scenarios and how they might impact national energy, climate and sustainable development goals. We help countries and regions achieve their long-term objectives through working with a wide ranging inter-disciplinary energy systems modelling analysis tools such as MARKAL / TIMES, LEAP, and in-house LCA-TEA (life cycle analysis techno-economic assessment) model. These modelling results are further corroborated with sector-specific models to ensure the link between policy and industrial actions.

Modelling Strategic Plan of Actions

National long-term energy and climate objectives are achieved through the collective near-term actions of the private industries, especially the heavy energy consumers, such as manufacturing, commercial services, and heat and power production. We help government departments and the industries plan for their near-term plan of actions in energy transition and decarbonisation while working with sector-specific modelling tools such as electricity dispatch model, building and plant energy simulation models, and life cycle assessment. This helps create a closed-loop ecosystem for macro-level planning and micro-level actions.
