Southeast Asia Hydropower Market Size Summary

The Southeast Asia hydropower market is poised for significant growth, driven by increasing investments in renewable energy and the rising demand for sustainable power sources. Despite the high initial costs associated with hydropower projects compared to other renewable energy forms like solar and wind, advancements in technology and reductions in production costs are expected to create substantial opportunities for market participants. Vietnam stands out as the region's largest hydropower market, benefiting from substantial investments and a high installed capacity. The market is characterized by large-scale hydropower plants, which include conventional dams, pumped storage, run-of-the-river, and tidal systems, all of which play a crucial role in generating renewable energy efficiently, particularly in urban areas.

The market landscape in Southeast Asia is moderately fragmented, with key players such as Vietnam Electricity Construction JSC, Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand, and PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara actively participating. Vietnam, in particular, has developed a mature hydropower market, having utilized a significant portion of its potential, yet still holds untapped opportunities in small-scale run-of-river projects. The country's reliance on hydroelectricity remains strong, although there is a growing shift towards coal-fired and other renewable energy sources to meet increasing domestic demand. Collaborative efforts, such as power purchase agreements with Laos, highlight the region's strategic focus on enhancing hydropower capacity and fostering deeper energy cooperation.
