Ember, a UK-based energy think tank analysing global electricity systems, has published a report examining AI use in ASEAN power networks. Solar and wind generation across ASEAN power systems increased from 2.3% of electricity supply in 2020 to about 5% in 2025. According to the report, variable renewable energy in ASEAN electricity systems could reach 42% to 47% of generation by 2045, with some scenarios exceeding 60%. The study states that artificial intelligence is being applied in power systems to improve renewable forecasting accuracy and optimise dispatch operations. It also explains that AI-based tools are supporting predictive maintenance, real-time grid control, and dynamic line rating across electricity networks. According to Ember, AI deployment in ASEAN power sectors could deliver $45 billion to $67 billion cumulative savings between 2026 and 2035. The report also estimates that artificial intelligence adoption could reduce approximately 290 to 400 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions across ASEAN power systems by 2035.
