As for the electricity network, the progress of the
ASEAN Power Grid Project is laudable since various
studies of planting-up optimization and transmission
interconnection have been accomplished through the
Head of ASEAN Power Utilities/Authorities (HAPUA)
as well as some border transmission systems have
been implemented by the mutual countries. With the
future interconnected power grid, ASEAN member
countries that have excess electricity supply will be
able to sell its power to neighbouring countries with
supply shortages, further encouraging more efficient
regional energy resource management.
