This report has been prepared by
Economic Consulting Associates (ECA) under contract to the
World Bank to explore the potential for interconnection and
electricity trade among Yemen and the countries of the Gulf
Cooperation Council (GCC). The primary objective for this
study is to identify the efficient scenarios to utilize gas
and electricity resources through cross-border integration
among Yemen and the GCC countries. The analysis includes an
assessment of gas resources available for the electricity
systems and identification of the potential for cross-border
interconnections and integration among the respective
countries to identify efficient, ways to utilize the gas
resources and generation capacities from national and
regional perspectives. The key findings of the study are as
follows: a) reform of natural gas pricing policies in the
GCC countries would encourage the development of gas
resources and discourage the use of gas for energy intensive
export industries, petrochemicals, aluminum, etc. This will
release natural gas for power generation and could release
some gas for export either to GCC neighbors or to the rest
of the world; and b) there are no benefits to
interconnecting Yemen and Saudi Arabia's networks for
trade in bulk electricity. Yemen's power system is too
unreliable at present to be considered for reserve sharing
as a member of the GCC interconnection scheme. Investigation
of the Yemen-Saudi interconnection should therefore be postponed. |
