Popis: | Energy being a vital input for development, energy Integration is imperative for the overall economic development of the South Asian region; more so because demand in individual countries is often difficult to be met from indigenous energy sources alone. The varying resource endowments among the countries of South Asia and the complementarities in demand scenario, makes a case for energy cooperation among the constituent nations. Energy cooperation among the member countries would reduce import dependence, help the region deal with power deficits and make the region self-sufficient in energy. With enhanced access to electricity the region will have higher growth rates and therefore, the topic of energy cooperation among the South Asian countries has been a topic of interest since two decades now. This paper presents the state-of the art of energy integration among the South Asian countries and also highlights the scope for enhanced energy integration. |
