Book Assessment of Power Sector Reforms in Sri Lanka

Download or read book Assessment of Power Sector Reforms in Sri Lanka written by Asian Development Bank and published by Asian Development Bank. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sri Lanka's power sector reforms were undertaken as part of a larger overall economic recovery effort and much-needed reconstruction program following a 30-year civil war. The power sector's restructuring, primarily geared toward encouraging more competition and improved regulation, has brought about wider access to the grid, lower transmission and distribution losses, and a more efficient generation system; but it was met with limited success in unbundling the power system and in making electricity tariffs cost-based and more efficient. This country report by the Asian Development Bank assesses Sri Lanka's experience in reforming its power sector for lessons and insights that other economies could find useful when pursuing their own power sector planning and policy and strategy formulation.

Book Assessment of Power Sector Reforms in Asia

Download or read book Assessment of Power Sector Reforms in Asia written by Asian Development Bank and published by Asian Development Bank. This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines three economies in different parts of Asia---Georgia, Sri Lanka, and Viet Nam---that introduced power sector reforms in recent years to create a commercially viable and efficient power sector. Each took a different route in moving away from a monopoly state-owned utility toward the common goal of a competitive, market-based, and better-regulated power sector. This report documents the broad spectrum of their power sector reform efforts, experiences, and relative successes as well as shortfalls, then uses international standard indicators to assess their economic, social, and environmental outcomes. Other economies should be able to draw valuable lessons and insights from this report for their own power-sector planning and policy and strategy formulation.

The coronavirus pandemic has impaired Maldives’ economy, severely affecting its tourism industry, which is one the country’s main economic drivers.
