A Study was conducted under Japan SAARC Special Fund for reviewing electricity laws, acts and regulations of the SAARC Member States. The study had identified legal barriers and had suggested reforms in the existing laws and regulatory frameworks of the Member States to facilitate energy trade in the region. The Dissemination Workshop deliberated on the main topics and recommendations of the study and prepared a way forward and action plan for consideration of the Member States for: (1) harmonization of electricity laws and regulations, (2) promotion of cross border electricity trade, (3) creation of cross border electricity infrastructure, within the region and with neighboring regions to meet the electricity demand for accelerated pace of economic growth of the Member States.
