AZERBAIJAN, 2013/06/12
A drive is gathering pace in Brunei Darussalam to increase regional cooperation on energy provision as part of a broader bid by Asia’s oil producers to meet rising request from nearby fast-growing economies.
Brunei Darussalam is one of only three nations in “developing Asia”, alongside Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan, estimate still to be energy-self-sufficient in 2035, according to a statement published in April by the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The ADB analysis was based on a country’s projected primary energy mix until 2035, taking into account key factors such as the amount of coal needed to generate electricity, current indigenous reserves of fossil fuel and projected consumption in the interim years.
