  • What 2026–2030 moves will unlock storage bankability, ancillary markets, storage-ready codes, and guaranteed offtake/cost recovery?

  • How should the APG prioritise links and rules by 2030/2035 so storage trades services across borders, and who pays vs. benefits?
  • What policy frameworks and auction models should Southeast Asia adapt now to speed storage and grid upgrades?
  • What roadmap design fixes will align with market realities and investor risk/return, including the post-2035 integration crunch?
