Abstract

The paper puts forth the idea of establishing inter-regional energy connectivity between the eastern expanse of South Asia and northwestern expanse of Southeast Asia. Initially, it discusses the interregional connectivity projects that have been completed recently, and the ones that will likely come about in the near future. Then it examines the shared historical linkages of this broad landmass. Further, it explores the current geo-political environment of the two regions, which it deems as conducive for generating energy cooperation in various sectors and locales. Thereafter, it studies the prospect of the energy cooperation from the theoretical prism of regional energy security cooperation. Finally, it gauges the present interloping opportunities and challenges while proposing an increase in the level of energy cooperation among these states across the broad region.
