For manufacturers, energy reliability is not an abstract infrastructure issue. It is an operational risk with direct consequences for output, quality, safety, and customer commitments. Even short power disruptions can trigger unplanned shutdowns, scrap losses, restart delays, and safety incidents. As energy systems face increasing strain from demand growth and grid volatility, manufacturers are re-evaluating how they manage power risk on site.

Across Asia Pacific, industrial and commercial businesses face the same pressure from every direction: rising electricity tariffs, grid uncertainty, and fast-evolving ESG expectations from regulators, investors, and global customers. 

The cement and construction materials sector, while vital to economic growth and development, is one of the most energy intensive industries in the world. 

Asia sits at the heart of the global semiconductor and electronics supply chain, powering everything from smartphones and laptops to electric vehicles and advanced robotics. 

From heating and cooling to distillation and drying, chemical manufacturing is one of the most energy-intensive industries in Asia. The sector accounts for about 10% of final industrial energy use in Southeast Asia and is a major contributor to the region’s emissions footprint.

In the automotive industry, energy is a critical input that powers everything from robotics and welding lines to paint shops and testing labs. With the shift toward advanced automation, greater digitalisation and the rise of electric vehicle (EV) production, electricity consumption across automotive manufacturing has surged.

Every sheet of paper comes with a footprint — and it's bigger than most realise.

The pharmaceutical industry is under increasing pressure to align with global sustainability targets — and for good reason. Research shows that the pharma sector generates an estimated 52 megatons of CO₂ emissions annually, for context, this is — roughly equivalent to the yearly emissions of 11 million passenger vehicles. 

The steel industry has long been the backbone of global infrastructure, powering everything from construction and automotive manufacturing to energy production. However, it is also one of themost energy-intensive sectors in the world, responsible for 8% of the global energy demand. In addition, steel production also accounts for6 - 9% of global carbon emissions.
