　　國際能源署（IEA）在巴黎總部外開設(shè)了首個辦事處，標(biāo)志著其與東南亞的合作進(jìn)入了新階段。 IEA區(qū)域合作中心在新加坡國際能源周期間揭牌，IEA執(zhí)行董事法提赫·比羅爾博士、新加坡副總理顏金勇和其他高級官員出席了儀式。

　　新加坡新辦事處旨在通過在可再生能源、清潔能源技術(shù)和跨境電力貿(mào)易方面提供政策支持、技術(shù)援助、培訓(xùn)和能力建設(shè)，加強國際能源署與東盟國家及其他國家的伙伴關(guān)系。該中心還將致力于改善清潔能源投資的融資渠道，幫助各國實現(xiàn)能源安全和減排目標(biāo)。

　　該辦事處體現(xiàn)了新加坡和國際能源署促進(jìn)區(qū)域能源彈性的共同愿景。新加坡貿(mào)工部第二部長陳詩令博士指出了此次合作的重要性：“這一伙伴關(guān)系將促進(jìn)東盟電網(wǎng)的發(fā)展，并加強融資機(jī)制，以加速能源轉(zhuǎn)型。”

　　應(yīng)對能源挑戰(zhàn)和機(jī)遇

　　盡管該地區(qū)制定了雄心勃勃的碳中和目標(biāo)，但 IEA 警告稱，除非采取果斷行動，否則東南亞的能源需求預(yù)計到 2050 年將增長 60% 以上，并且將繼續(xù)依賴化石燃料。新中心旨在提供重要指導(dǎo)，幫助各國提高能源效率、擴(kuò)大可再生能源發(fā)電并采用低排放燃料。

　　比羅爾強調(diào)了新辦事處的重要性：“國際能源署在新加坡開設(shè)新辦事處對于國際能源署來說是一個歷史性時刻，標(biāo)志著我們與東南亞關(guān)系的重大變化。我們期待與這個充滿活力且快速發(fā)展的地區(qū)的所有國家進(jìn)行更密切的合作，該地區(qū)對全球能源趨勢的影響力正在顯著增加。”

　　新加坡和 IEA 有著長期的合作關(guān)系，新加坡于 2016 年作為聯(lián)系國加入 IEA。多年來，通過新加坡-IEA 區(qū)域中心和新加坡-IEA 部長級論壇等舉措，合作不斷擴(kuò)大，促進(jìn)了政策交流和知識共享。

　　能源市場管理局 (EMA) 首席執(zhí)行官潘國強 (Puah Kok Keong) 強調(diào)了這種持久的伙伴關(guān)系：“鞏固國際能源署在該地區(qū)的影響力是新加坡深化與國際合作伙伴合作的一部分，旨在為新加坡創(chuàng)造一個更清潔、更有彈性和可持續(xù)的能源未來。全部。”

　　國際能源署成立于 1974 年，已從主要關(guān)注石油安全發(fā)展到涵蓋廣泛的能源問題，包括清潔能源技術(shù)、電力市場和可持續(xù)能源的獲取。國際能源署繼續(xù)在全球能源轉(zhuǎn)型中發(fā)揮關(guān)鍵作用，提供數(shù)據(jù)、政策建議和實際解決方案。

　　IEA opens Singapore office to boost energy collaboration in ASEAN

　　The International Energy Agency (IEA) has opened its first-ever office outside of its Paris headquarters, marking a new phase in its collaboration with Southeast Asia. The IEA Regional Cooperation Centre was inaugurated during the Singapore International Energy Week, attended by IEA Executive Director Dr. Fatih Birol, Singapore’s Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong, and other senior officials.

　　The new office in Singapore aims to enhance the IEA’s partnerships with ASEAN nations and beyond by providing policy support, technical assistance, training, and capacity-building in renewables, clean energy technology, and cross-border power trade. The centre will also work on improving access to finance for clean energy investments, helping countries meet energy security and emission reduction targets.

　　The office reflects Singapore’s and the IEA’s shared vision to promote regional energy resilience. Singapore’s Second Minister for Trade and Industry, Dr. Tan See Leng, noted the significance of the collaboration: “This partnership will catalyse the advancement of the ASEAN Power Grid and strengthen financing mechanisms to accelerate energy transitions.”

　　Navigating energy challenges and opportunities

　　Despite ambitious carbon neutrality goals across the region, the IEA warns that energy demand in Southeast Asia is projected to grow by more than 60% by 2050, with continued reliance on fossil fuels unless decisive action is taken. The new centre aims to provide critical guidance to help countries enhance energy efficiency, expand renewable energy generation, and adopt low-emissions fuels.

　　Birol highlighted the importance of the new office: “The opening of the IEA’s new office in Singapore is an historic moment for the IEA and signals a step change in our relationship with Southeast Asia. We look forward to working much more closely with all the countries in this dynamic and fast-growing region, whose influence over global energy trends is markedly increasing.”

　　Singapore and the IEA have a long-standing relationship, with Singapore joining the IEA as an association country in 2016. Over the years, the collaboration has expanded through initiatives such as the Singapore-IEA Regional Hub and the Singapore-IEA Ministerial Forum, fostering policy exchanges and knowledge sharing.

　　Chief Executive of the Energy Market Authority (EMA), Puah Kok Keong, highlighted the enduring partnership: “Anchoring the IEA’s presence in the region is part of Singapore’s efforts in deepening cooperation with international partners towards a cleaner, more resilient and sustainable energy future for all.”

　　Founded in 1974, the International Energy Agency has evolved from focusing primarily on oil security to covering a broad spectrum of energy issues, including clean energy technologies, electricity markets, and access to sustainable energy. The IEA continues to play a crucial role in global energy transitions, providing data, policy recommendations, and real-world solutions.
