Energy White Paper

legislation type Executive
Policy
Passed in 2013
The 2013 Energy White Paper aims at driving the country's economy into a sustainable future. Three Strategic Goals were defined to propel the energy sector forward and realise the the National Vision by 2035: 1) strengthen and Grow Oil and Gas Upstream and Downstream Activities, 2) ensure Safe, Secure, Reliable and E cient Supply and Use of Energy, and 3) maximise Economic Spin-off from Energy Industry - Boost Local Content and Secure High Participation of Local Workforce.

To mitigate the country's impact on climate change, the country suggests to increase energy efficiency and shifting the country's production and use of fossil fuels toward shale gas and LNG. Renewable sources of energy are also promoted.
