The Hormuz energy crisis has been challenging energy security in Asia by reducing the Middle Eastern oil and gas supplies while also elevating prices of supplies from alternative sources. In response, governments throughout the region have adopted a range of measures to strengthen energy security.
This is the first webinar in a series examining the long-term implications of the crisis for energy policy across Asia's major subregions. As the crisis enters its sixth month, the series begins with Japan and South Korea, two countries that rely heavily on maritime trade for their hydrocarbon supplies.
Join Chairman Tatsuya Terazawa of the Institute of Energy Economics, Japan (IEEJ), Dr. Jae-Seung Lee of Korea University, and Jane Nakano, Senior Fellow at CSIS, for a discussion on how the crisis is reshaping energy policy.
The conversation will explore how the crisis is influencing investment in overseas oil and gas projects, the pace of electrification and decarbonization, and the future of energy innovation in Japan and South Korea.
This event is made possible by general funding to CSIS and the CSIS Energy Security and Climate Change Program.
