No RPS125206-3, ADB Reports from Asian Development Bank (ADB)

Abstract: The Asian Development Bank (ADB) is preparing sector assessments to help align future ADB support with the needs and strategies of developing member countries and other development partners. This assessment is a working document that helps inform the development of country partnership strategies. This energy sector initial assessment outlines development issues, needs, and strategic assistance priorities of the Government of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar for ADB’s reengagement. It highlights sector performance, priority development constraints, the government’s strategy and plans, past ADB support, and possible future ADB assistance, including knowledge support and investments. The product serves as a basis for further dialogue on how ADB and the government can work together to tackle the challenges and opportunities to ensure efficient and effective use of energy resources for sustainable development of the energy sector in Myanmar in coming years. This publication also aims to help stakeholders understand energy situations in Myanmar, recognize the potential of energy resources development, and enhance regional cooperation for inclusive and sustainable economic development of Myanmar.
