Description
This report takes a long-term view towards enabling APEC economies’ energy and economic resiliency by focusing on two systems essential to meeting economies’ objectives: DC power and microgrids. The report delivers policy recommendations from public and private sector experts to overcome technological, market, and regulatory barriers that impede investment in these energy systems. The materials included in this report are based on the learnings of prior projects and a workshop hosted at the First Senior Officials Meeting in 2025. Policymakers and organizations may leverage the report’s recommendations to (1) build domestic regulatory capacity, (2) facilitate trade and investment, and (3) promote the use of efficient, resilient, and safe technologies critical to the energy transition.
The report also includes feedback from workshop participants and aims to inform the successful execution of future projects.
