Transition in Action: Energy, Politics and Technology

The ASB Center for Technology, Strategy, and Sustainability hosts this two-day event at the Asia School of Business. Participants may choose to attend both days or either day. Please see the agenda below and register accordingly.

Malaysia Energy Transition:A Systems Dynamics Approach (Workshop)

Date: 22 April, 2026

Time: 9:00AM - 5:00PM

Venue: Level 2, CR-W2-04, Asia School of Business

Facilitator: Dr. Jude Kurniawan

This workshop explores Malaysia’s energy transition under the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR) and NDC 3.0 using a System Dynamics approach. Through Participatory Systems Mapping (PSM), participants will collaboratively identify key variables, causal relationships, and feedback loops that influence the energy transition. The session aims to help participants think systemically about policy design, examine how interventions such as fuel subsidy reform affect areas like EV adoption, fiscal stability, and energy security, and identify strategic leverage points for more coherent and adaptive policy implementation.

Workshop Objectives: By the end of the session, participants will:

1. Develop a systemic view of Malaysia’s energy transition.
2. Identify reinforcing feedback loops influencing NETR outcomes.
3. Surface structural trade-offs embedded in current policy design.
4. Detect potential unintended consequences of major interventions (e.g., subsidy reform, EV incentives).
5. Identify high-leverage intervention points for strategic alignment.
