As our world continues to warm up, tropical dwellers depend heavily on cooling technologies to combat
their habitat's harsh elements. For most of Southeast Asia, this means cranking up the air-conditioning, thus taking a
heavy toll on the already-fragile regional environment.
On Monday, Eco-Business – a media firm covering sustainability in Asia – presented the results of their
study on cooling systems and energy efficiency at a conference in Bangkok, reports Reuters. The survey gathers
insights from more than 420 managers and experts from government agencies and multinational companies in
Southeast Asian countries, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam. The results show
that people in the region are increasingly attempting to cope with rising temperatures and deteriorating air quality by
using inefficient air-conditioning systems, which only exacerbates the problems.
From 2000 to 2016, the region's energy demands increased by 70%, brought about by rapid urbanization in
countries like Vietnam, Myanmar, and Indonesia. The report added that air-conditioning contributed greatly to the
rise in power use. By 2040, cooling technologies – such as refrigeration and air-conditioning – could constitute as
much as 40% of Southeast Asia’s electricity use. “The domestic aspect of electricity consumption has grown
massively - more so than industry and the service sector in ASEAN - and as a result the air-conditioning bill is
going through the roof,” Tim Hill, Eco-Business’s research director, told Reuters.
In Southeast Asia, where most countries are stilled largely powered by coal-fired plants, a fondness for
energy-guzzling cooling systems means burning more coal and worsening air pollution. However, despite the grim
prospects, researchers also shared that there are ways to mitigate the problem. The International Energy Agency
estimates that simply improving energy efficiency could provide “almost 40 percent of the emissions reductions
needed to stay within the 2-degree Celsius ceiling for staving off the worst effects of climate change.”
To achieve this, the Eco-Business report urged policy-makers and businesses in the region to implement
measures to improve the efficiency of cooling systems, curtail excessive air-conditioning, and educate people on the
impacts of inefficient air-con on the environment Hill emphasized: “Governments need to drive this by putting in
regulations that enforce more efficient forms of air-conditioning - making sure they’re not dumping grounds for old-
fashioned products.”
Curbing excessive cooling in public buildings like offices, shopping malls and cinemas could also go a long
way in more developed nations such as in Singapore – where 68% of respondents shared that they often work in
settings that are too cold. “Air-con is designed to make people feel more comfortable but it’s actually doing
completely the reverse - it’s making people feel more uncomfortable and making them more unproductive by
freezing them,” Hill said.
Consumers, businesses and governments must also work together to move away from a reliance on coal-
fired power stations, said Mark Radka, head of energy, climate and technology at UN Environment in Paris, who
also worked on the report. “The ASEAN countries as a whole should try to up their game,” he added.
