Energy Consumption in the ASEANEnergy Consumption in the ASEAN

Overview

Total and residential energy consumption in the member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) have increased by 112 and 52 percent respectively between 1990 and 2014 according to the statistics by the International Energy Agency (IEA) [1] and the United Nation Statistics Division (UNSD) [2]. In the same period, the total and residential energy consumption in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries have increased by only 17 and 15 percent respectively.

This rapid increase in the ASEAN’s energy consumption is reportedly driven by the socio-economic development in the ASEAN countries. The IEA predicted that the ASEAN’s energy demand will grow by 80% from today to about 46 EJ (1100 Mtoe) in 2040, accompanying with the regional economic development [3]. Energy policies in the ASEAN countries are of growing importance in global energy security and prevention of global warming.

Climate

The climate in the ASEAN countries is mainly tropical. Tropical climates are categorized into three climates by precipitation: tropical rainforest (indicated by Af under the Koppen climate classification), tropical monsoon (Am), and tropical savanna (Aw).

Table 1 lists the capital or largest cities of each country and their population and climate classification. The majority of these cities have tropical climates, in which all twelve months have mean temperatures of at least 18°C. This leads to a common living habit among the people in the ASEAN countries. This habit may be characterized by light-duty garment, traditional architecture with a high regard for ventilation and shading, and strong need for air-conditioning and refrigeration in a modern urban life.

Table 1 shows an exception that Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, belongs to the humid subtropical climate (indicated by Cwa). There is a potential that this exception causes the difference in residential electricity demand between Vietnam and the other ASEAN countries.

Demographics and Economy

Table 2 shows the population, number of households, family size, access to electricity, and per capita GDP of ASEAN countries.

The family size and access to electricity, which affect the residential energy consumption, don’t correlate well with the per capita GDP. For instance, the access to electricity in Vietnam is very high while its per capita GDP is lower among the ASEAN countries. This tells that the family size and access to electricity cannot be simply considered dependent variables responding to the per capita GDP.

Final Energy Consumption per capita

Table 3 shows the final energy consumption per capita by sector in 1990 and 2014. The data of Cambodia and Laos in 1990 are not available. Brunei, Malaysia, and Singapore are the top three in the total final energy consumption both in 1990 and 2014. As to the rate of increase, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam doubled their total final energy consumption during the twenty four years. In Indonesia and the least developed countries, i.e., Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar, the residential sector consumes the most energy.

Residential Energy Consumption per Capita by Energy

Table 4 shows the residential energy consumption per capita by energy source. The energy source consumed in all countries is electricity. The electricity consumption has increased in all countries. Especially in Vietnam, the electricity consumption has grown by 15 times between 1990 and 2014. Although the oil products and bio fuels are important energy source in many ASEAN countries, their consumption has been decreased in Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, and Singapore.
