NUS institute partners with Rockefeller Foundation to boost SEA energy shift

The foundation awarded the NUS Institute $370,000 to start a climate policy fellowship.

The National University of Singapore's Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy's Institute for Environment and Sustainability (IES) partnered with The Rockefeller Foundation to accelerate Southeast Asia's (SEA) energy transition efforts.

IES received a $370,000 (US$275,000) grant from The Rockefeller Foundation to start a climate policy fellowship and lead dialogues to boost regional energy connectivity in Southeast Asia over the next two years.

The collaboration will strengthen the capacity to deliver renewable energy from one country to neighbouring countries' high-demand areas, supporting SEA’s energy transition and development goals.

The grant also backs the increasing focus on climate policy discourse in and for the Global South, and The Rockefeller Foundation's five-year billion-dollar climate strategy to promote the global climate transition.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
