Abstract

This note reviews academic research models and reports the selection of an appropriate model that can quantify the benefits of regional power connectivity in the region of China’s Belt and Road Energy Partnership. A top-down macro model is more suitable for assessing the influence of power connectivity. In contract, a bottom-up model reflecting technical characteristics is recommended for measuring the impact of national investment in power facilities on energy structure transformation.
