Cross Border Electricity Trading in SAARC Countries

Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 6

Abstract

While energy remains a key issue to socio-economic progress of any region especially in developing countries. Over the last two decades South Asia has been one of the fastest growing regions in the world with an average annual growth of 6 percent. The region has a variety of energy resources with major potential for hydropower. While India, Pakistan and Bangladesh account for major natural gas and coal resources, Bhutan and Nepal have huge hydropower resources. In spite of this there exists a wide variation in commercial energy endowments and commercial energy demand in the south Asian countries. One of the main reasons behind all these is the lack of regional cooperation in producing power from available resources. This paper examines the benefits of regional electricity cooperation in south Asia, providing a major opportunity for individual countries to address barriers to sustainable inclusive economic growth by Cross Border Electricity Trading (CBET).
