RCM FOR ASIA AND PACIFIC REGION SET TO ADVANCE REGIONAL PARTNERSHIPS

- 

The International Solar Alliance (ISA) will host the Seventh Regional Committee Meeting (RCM) for the Asia and Pacific region from July 15 to 17, 2025, in Colombo.

This important gathering will bring together government officials, technical universities, think tanks, institutional partners and leaders from the private sector to advance a coordinated and strategic agenda for scaling solar deployment across this dynamic and diverse region.

With the theme 'Advancing Solar Cooperation Across a Region of Diversity and Opportunity', the meeting will serve as a confluence of strategic dialogue, knowledge exchange and action-oriented outcomes to strengthen the APAC region's leadership in the global solar transition.

Emphasising the significance of the Asia and Pacific region in shaping the clean energy future, ISA Director General Ashish Khanna remarked, "The Asia and Pacific region is at the heart of the global energy transition. The RCM in Colombo is an opportunity to develop practical, investment-ready solutions with the potential to scale across countries and technologies. Whether it is developing regional aggregated solar energy platforms for SIDS, enabling regional interconnections between countries, scaling up Asian institutions for integration of solar and digital innovation or supporting the growth of new technologies like green hydrogen and storage, this meeting will help chart a path towards a solar-powered future, grounded in partnerships and local leadership."
