The emergence of Greater Asia as a significant player in the global energy transition is characterized by a shift towards autonomy and innovation, reducing dependence on external actors like the EU and the US. The region, spanning from Japan to the Arabian Peninsula and from Russia to Australia, is becoming a hub of energy production and importation. Developments in critical raw material monopolization, new alliances, and technological advancements like small modular nuclear reactors are reshaping the energy landscape. Interregional ties and partnerships, including the BRICS+ framework and collaborations between countries like Russia, China, and the Gulf States, are driving energy trade and climate action. Greater Asia is a key contributor to both CO2 emissions and clean energy initiatives, with initiatives such as carbon storage technologies and regional hydrogen agendas. While European influence is declining, Germany and the EU must assess the evolving trends in Greater Asia to determine their role in the energy transition and navigate geopolitical realignments.
