Chinese Small Hydro
China boasts more than half of the world's small hydro installed capacity (as of 2014). Between 2005 and 2008 especially, significant growth of small hydro installations occurred around the world but in China above all. Small hydro is seen as more sustainable than larger hydroplants as the impact on the surroundings is drastically reduced.

Thai Solar
Thailand is endowed with abundant solar energy resources across the country, with more solar power capacity than all the rest of Southeast Asia combined. Its total installed solar PV generating capacity increased tenfold in the first half of the 2010s, which is promising for Thailand's 2036 solar PV target of 6000 MW capacity.

Malaysian Solar
The last few years have seen an increase in the installed capacity of solar in Malaysia, in line with the government's goal to have installed 9 GW of solar capacity by 2050. The solar market is thus expected to continue to grow rapidly, thanks in part to government initiatives and policies.
