As ASEAN is now pursuing regional energy cooperation, it is important to measure the status of energy security performance of member nations. This paper assesses the security of energy supply among nine ASEAN member nations and examines whether and how it has evolved over the past decade. The analysis uses 35 indicators selected based on three dimensions of energy security: supply security, socio-economic and environmental dimension. The evaluation findings show how concept of energy security differs among ASEAN member nations. Despite uneven economic and energy development, existing intra-regional energy markets are interconnected. The concept of regional self-reliance could be useful in designing and promoting ASEAN energy security cooperation.
