This represented a 4 per cent gain in the share over 2012. Geothermal resources are also abundant but capacity additions have not increased significantly because of technical and financial barriers, though new efforts are being pursued in Indonesia and the Philippines where the potential is high. Solar is also increasingly being used in on- and off-grid applications across countries, with Thailand accounting for 75 per cent of solar energy consumption in the subregion. Backing this development is a shift in policy stance towards supporting renewables with the introduction of targets, financial incentives, public financing measures and regulations. Such policies and measures were rarely implemented in the region prior to 2000.
