Read the reportRead the Executive SummaryContributors Myanmar is an energy resource rich country, strategically located between major emerging countries such as China and India. Yet, a large share of the population lacks access to electricity and enabling development of its energy sector will be core to powering future development. The Forum's New Energy Architecture Initiative works to assess how countries can enable an effective transition to more secure, sustainable and affordable energy systems. As part of this Initiative, we have formed a collaboration with the Ministry of Energy of...

The World Economic Forum in collaboration with Accenture and a panel of experts have developed an Energy Architecture Performance Index (EAPI). The EAPI benchmarks and ranks 105 countries globally on how well their energy system delivers economic growth and development, environmental sustainability and energy security and access. In a changing global energy landscape, countries are seeking ways to manage the transition to new energy systems that better deliver on these core goals. The EAPI offers a tool for decision makers to monitor the performance of their energy system and a basis for assessing areas to improve.

The World Economic Forum engages business, government and civil society leaders to address pressing global energy challenges through its Energy Industry partnership. Globally and nationally, the "architecture of energy systems" is undergoing significant change. Governments, industry and other stakeholders seek new solutions to ensure energy systems underpin 21st century requirements of economic growth, sustainability and energy security.
The energy related activities of the World Economic Forum focus on creating new insights, and a platform for stakeholders to act upon some of the most important energy issues. Current focus issues include:New Energy Architecture - Many countries struggle to upgrade their energy systems to fully support current and future requirements of energy security and access, sustainability and economic growth. This work area looks into pathways to creating a more effective transition towards a new energy architecture.Energy for Society is a global initiative that aims to accelerate...
