Smart Grid, Smart Workforce, and Capacity Development Read more about Smart Grid, Smart Workforce, and Capacity Development The number of jobs in the renewable energy industry worldwide is growing and studies indicate that much of this employment is shifting to Asia. Smarter grid will require a highly skilled workforce, with implications for retraining, training, and education. Some studies also find that the renewable energy industry indicates more gender parity than the broader energy sector. This session discusses the implications of this emerging new industry for the education system, the power sector, and the labor force.
Energy Technology Innovation in South Asia: Implications for Gender Equality and Social Inclusion Read more about Energy Technology Innovation in South Asia: Implications for Gender Equality and Social Inclusion How can gender equality and social inclusion (GESI) be integrated into electricity systems modelling with a rural electrification focus? What are the potential entry points for GESI in the renewable energy programs of the Government of Sri Lanka? These two questions are answered in this session that discusses the methodology, findings, and outcomes of the research on “Energy Technology Innovation in South Asia: Implications for Gender and Social Inclusion” conducted by the University of Melbourne for ADB.
Asia Clean Energy Forum 2018 Read more about Asia Clean Energy Forum 2018 At the Asia Clean Energy Forum 2018, energy experts will address key clean energy challenges, successes, and innovations across Asia and the Pacific. ADB, USAID, and the Korea Energy Agency are organizing the Asia Clean Energy Forum (ACEF) 2018 with the aim of sharing best practices in policy, technology, and finance to meet the region's climate and energy security challenges.
Smart Grid Technologies and Implications for Inclusive Development in Sri Lanka Read more about Smart Grid Technologies and Implications for Inclusive Development in Sri Lanka Developed as part of a series of training programs by the Melbourne School of Engineering for ADB, this learning program aimed to further improve and update the technical expertise of ADB’s executing and implementing agencies, partner organizations, and staff on the integration of high-level technology for inclusive energy solutions with a focus on enhancing gender equality and social inclusion results and benefits. It provided scope for a dynamic learning exchange taking off from the examples and experiences of Sri Lanka.
