The outbreak of the COVID-19 has had a huge impact on the world's energy market, and the global energy governance situation is not optimistic. As an important region of energy consumption, Asia's demand for energy governance has increased. At the same time, it has also produced many problems, such as energy structure imbalance, backward energy infrastructure, environmental pollution caused by energy and difficulty in ensuring energy security. Taking Turkey and Maldives as examples, the article shows that the Asian infrastructure investment bank tries to improve the current situation of energy governance in the Asia Pacific region by promoting energy infrastructure construction, promoting energy transformation and participating in multilateral cooperation. These measures conform to the new trend of energy development in the post epidemic era and promote the reconstruction of energy order in the Asia Pacific region and even the whole world. At the same time, the article points out the possible problems of the AIIB in energy governance and put forward improvement suggestions on these problems.
