Transforming energy system comes with its challenges. As a key enabler in our decarbonisation efforts, regional interconnectivity plays a crucial role in meeting the rising energy demand and in improving energy access. It would also enable the sharing of flexible resources and operating reserves where markets and regulations are appropriately set. Strengthening its potential would require forward-looking planning, modernisation and expansion of supporting infrastructure on land and sea to facilitate the development, storage, distribution and transmission, and consumption of renewables.
