Macroeconomic Benefits of CBET impacts in South Asia Region

Under the SARI/EI program, IRADe commenced the Macroeconomic analytical study with the primary purpose to build consensus for cross border electricity trade. It involves multi country analysis which is bringing out the economic (macro and micro) importance of power trade besides other country benefits. In-addition, the study is carrying out a set of activities to build consensus through various channels and create political climate for co-operation. The Consensus building activities are converging stakeholders from power sector, financial and diplomatic communities and other energy experts.   

Objective of the study: To critically assess the need for CBET among the nations of the South Asia region through comprehensive South Asia Regional Energy integration analytical studies that quantify the technical, economic, environmental and energy market benefits of cross border interconnection in the region.


Key goal of the study: To provide estimates of benefits holistically and the need for supporting regulatory and market developments that may aid in creating the political consensus for regional electricity trade.

The outcome of the studies aim for rigorous estimates of benefits to inform the discussion by all three Task Forces Energy Cooperation in South Asia of the SARI/EI and pave the path to prepare and develop regional energy markets and make them sustainable in order to foster economic growth of this region.

Electricity sector integration in South Asia is in an evolutionary stage and awaits a structured approach to develop a regional power market. Although there are no formal market-based multilateral trading arrangements (supported with a harmonized commercial, regulatory, and legal framework). However successful bilateral trading arrangements in place between Bhutan-India, India-Bangladesh and India-Nepal highlight the benefits from such cooperation.  The existing and the proposed cross-border electric inter-linkages in the South Asian region are the culmination of bilateral negotiations. The initial focus on a strong bilateral form of power trade would ensure the investment in viable interconnections. South Asia Regional Energy integration   With gradual harmonization of electricity codes and balancing mechanisms, and the strengthening of institutional cooperation, short-term transactions through OTC/bilateral and energy exchanges would become increasingly feasible.

In South Asia, India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal have established transmission links whereby electrical power is being traded. Opportunities for Cross Border Electrical Power Profession (CBET) in the region have magnified particularly that power security has come to be a political top priority for all the country governments. The current growths favoring CBET in the region consist of the signing of the Power Trade Agreement by Governments of India and also Nepal as well as the finalizing of the SAARC Framework Arrangement for Power Cooperation (Electrical Energy) in December 2014. These advancements have currently activated stakeholders for local as well as sub-regional projects in the locations of power generation, transmission as well as power profession. South Asia Regional Energy integration   The gravitas for CBET in South Asia was more established when the 2nd meeting of SAARC power regulatory authorities kept in February 2016 mulled over to constitute the "SAARC Council
