The Laos-Australia Sustainable Energy Partnership (LASEP) aims to support a more sustainable, reliable and profitable energy sector in Laos. This will advance Laos’ National Socio-Economic Development Plan, moving towards a Green Economy and supporting Laos’ ambitions to achieve net zero by 2050. Laos, Australia and ASEAN are working together to address common priorities, such as the clean energy transition.

Since 2021, P4I has worked together with ASEAN to drive practical cooperation on shared infrastructure priorities, including renewable energy, transport and connectivity, and inclusive and climate resilient infrastructure. This factsheet outlines ASEAN and P4I's sector priorities and partnership overview.

This brief summarises information presented by Australia’s National Science Agency, CSIRO, at the Thailand-Australia knowledge exchange on sustainable hydrogen development. It provides an overview of hydrogen’s growing role in Australia, the transition from the national roadmap to the revised national strategy in 2024, key government initiatives to accelerate industry development, and key pilot and demonstration projects.

Partnerships for Infrastructure has supported Laos' Ministry of Energy and Mines, to develop the Lao PDR National Green Hydrogen and Ammonia Roadmap (roadmap). This case study examines the blueprint development process and the potential impacts that the production of green hydrogen and ammonia could have in Laos, emphasising the importance of sustainability, inclusion and resilience in a rapidly evolving energy landscape. The participatory development processes and analyses for the Lao PDR roadmap are readily adaptable. They can serve as a model for other Southeast Asian countries currently exploring hydrogen and ammonia as components of their broader energy transition strategies.
