During this transformative period, we have seen the mainstreaming of carbon neutrality, as many countries have committed to net-zero targets and have set ambitious nationally determined contributions. These actions have fortified the commitments to climate action made by countries through their participation in the Paris Climate Agreement.As we launched ACEF 2023 during 13–16 June, we aimed to revitalize the ACEF platform for delivering and sharing practical knowledge, highlighting innovative new ideas and initiatives, and enhancing opportunities for collaboration among a diverse range of clean energy stakeholders and practitioners across Asia and the Pacific. This collaborative approach to driving action was captured by the theme of this forum, “Navigating Toward a Carbon-Neutral Future Through Clean Energy Solutions.” ACEF 2023 was attended by more than 1,000 participants from 65 countries, who enjoyed a packed and extensive agenda comprising Plenary Sessions, Thematic Tracks, Regional Sessio
