Based on these conclusions, GMS member countries were surveyed (attached as an appendix), and, this report compares the status of institutional/regulatory, and commercial policies across the region, to provide background information. Specifically, the focus is on the compatibility of national regulatory systems, especially for wheeling; the compatibility of pricing principles at both production, and transmission; and, the potential barriers to enhanced trade, which are revealed in this review. Section 2 provides a brief review of on-going reforms in member countries. Section 3 compares progress with respect to key regulatory, and commercial issues (particularly pricing) most critical to power trade, noting barriers to expanded power trade revealed through the country comparisons. 2014-09-30T15:34:15Z 2014-09-30T15:34:15Z 2001-12 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2001/12/1735286/development-regional-power-market-greater-mekong-sub-region-gms http://hdl.handle.net/10986/20280 English en_US Energy Sector Management Assistance Programme (ESMAP) technical paper series;no. 15 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: ESMAP Paper Publications & Research East Asia and Pacific Southeast Asia Vietnam
