Series: ADB Data Room: Green and Resilient Ports in Southeast Asia Future Fuels, Shore Power, and Energy Transition Readiness 21 May 2026 Ports are vital nodes in the maritime supply chain and play an important role in reducing emissions, improving energy efficiency, and supporting the broader energy transition. As regulations, market expectations, and energy security concerns drive the shift toward cleaner operations, ports need to prepare for low- and zero-carbon fuels, shore power, electrification, renewable energy integration, and clean energy logistics. This session examined how ports can strengthen energy transition readiness through future fuels and bunkering, shore power, energy infrastructure, and clean energy logistics. The discussion highlighted emerging practices, technologies, regulations, and practical examples that can inform port planning and investment across Southeast Asia. The webinar is the seventh in the Green Ports Webinar Series, organized by the ASEAN Catalytic Green Finance Facility (ACGF) and hosted by the Southeast Asia Development Solutions platform and Development Asia of the Asian Development Bank (ADB). ACGF, an ASEAN Infrastructure Fund initiative, supports governments in Southeast Asia to prepare and finance infrastructure projects that advance environmental sustainability and strengthen climate resilience. ACGF is owned by ASEAN governments and ADB.
