南亚的能源需求和本地能源供应日益不平衡，导致对进口的依赖增加。南亚国家的能源禀赋各不相同。但是，无法获得邻国的重要能源资源，这增加了能源供应的成本，降低了个别国家和整个区域的能源安全。只有通过互联互通加强能源贸易机制，地区国家才能从中受益。因此，在南亚内部加强合作可能是解决这一区域能源赤字和确保该区域能源安全的最有效方法之一。
South Asia has witnessed a growing imbalance between energy demand and its supply from indigenous sources resulting in increased import dependence. Energy endowments differ among the South Asian countries. However, access to the significant energy resources in the neighboring countries is denied, which increases the cost of energy supply and reduces energy security of the individual countries and of the region as a whole. The countries in the region could benefit significantly only by strengthening the mechanism of energy trade through improved connectivity. Therefore, greater cooperation within South Asia could be one of the most effective ways to deal with this Regional Energy deficit and ensure Energy Security of the Region.
