AsiaWEA will coordinate international policy, communications, research and analysis and will provide services to support members’ requirements and needs to help their development, offering the best networking and learning opportunities in the sector within Asia-Pacific. It has already received strong support from several leading stakeholders in the wind industry such as turbine suppliers, developers and investors.

Membership co-ordinator Ms. Garima Singhal has announced that the new association will begin its operations by receiving membership applications this month, although official membership will commence from January 2017.  

“Our mission is to establish and promote wind power as the solution to the region’s rapidly growing energy demand and environmental challenges, providing meaningful benefits to the region as a whole” said Edgare Kerkwijk, one of the founders and board members of the association.

Mr. Goh Chee Kiong, Executive Director for Cleantech at Singapore’s Economic Development Board (EDB), added that the establishment of AsiaWEA in Singapore is aligned with EDB’s position as a leading clean energy hub in Asia and that it will greatly help to serve the fast-growing wind energy market in the region.

Several activities are being planned in the coming year. In addition to quarterly membership gatherings and industry-specific seminars, the association will organise the first annual Asia Wind Energy Conference during the Singapore International Energy Week in October 2017.
