Asia’s reliance on fossil imports makes it vulnerable to supply and price shocks.
Fortunately, even before tensions around the Strait of Hormuz, the cost of solar batteries and EVs already undercut their fossil counterparts in Asia.

🚨 NEW | Asia holds half the world's people but just 4% of its oil and gas, making fossil dependence an unreliable path to power its growth.
On the other hand, Asia is a major manufacturer of #electrotech – tools that can replace the fuel it lacks 🧵1/4

Accelerating the EU’s electrification with domestic clean power and manufacturing of clean tech is a path towards long-term energy security.
Fortunately, Europe's clean tech manufacturing base is stronger than you might think 🇪🇺 🤔

2️⃣ Rising renewables are changing what energy is
Fossil fuels are commodities dug from the ground. Solar, batteries and wind are technologies built on a production line.
Asia makes 95% of solar panels, 85% of batteries and 75% of wind turbines.

EVs cut down the EU’s oil imports ✂️
And the region can manufacture as much as 4.6 million EVs annually, nearly DOUBLE the current demand of 2.5 million.
In 2025, EVs avoided 67 million barrels of oil imports worth €4.1bn 🇪🇺

Gas is losing market share across much of the world, as renewables increasingly meet new demand.
In Europe, Latin America and much of Asia, gas is no longer the primary route to power sector growth.

The Hormuz crisis could add $14 BILLION to Türkiye’s net energy import bill in 2026.
🚗 Road transport is the single largest item on the bill, at $15 billion in 2025.
🔥 Residential heating and hot water cost Türkiye $7.2 billion

🚗 Türkiye yollarındaki her 1 milyon elektrikli araç, her yıl yaklaşık 900 milyon dolarlık fosil yakıt ithalatının önüne geçebilir
🔥 Evlerin sadece 'unda doğalgazlı ısınma ve sıcak su sistemlerinin ısı pompalarıyla değiştirilmesi, 1 milyar dolardan fazla tasarruf sağlayabilir

Ember's Kingsmill Bond spoke to the CNBC about how "fossil fuels are now intermittent and uncertain."
And as fuel supply disruptions continue to make headlines, rapid deployment of renewables and electrification can be a stable and low-cost alternative.

The US has been the single biggest driver of global gas power growth since 2015.
It accounted for nearly a THIRD of global gas generation growth between 2015 and 2025.
