Recommendation

Even readers who know little about Myanmar – sometimes still known as Burma, but not in this report – will find a lot of interesting material in this analysis from the World Economic Forum. It details how a nation develops a new energy policy to provide power for a growing domestic economy, brings electricity to a rural majority that lacks it, and establishes sustainable, long-range practices. Myanmar’s energy journey is a study in problem solving and negotiation. Policy makers seeking to strengthen their jurisdictions’ energy policies and practices will be able to learn worthy lessons from this paper. getAbstract recommends it to energy industry insiders and investors, public administrators and anyone interested in the future of this emerging – and surprising – Southeast Asian nation.

Take-Aways

  • Myanmar is in the process of developing a “new energy architecture” or framework.
  • Its policy makers are trying to balance the three sides of the “energy triangle”: the economy, the environment and energy security.
  • Myanmar’s current energy architecture is weak: Less than one-third of its population has electricity, and its power plants and transmission grid are outdated.
