Having countries trade electricity freely through a regional grid would allow them to meet rising electricity demand while being assured of energy security. Such a grid would hedge against the intermittencies of renewables, by distributing energy more efficiently.
Around 99 per cent of the region’s population would benefit from air pollution being reduced by around half, leading to 15,000 fewer pollution-induced deaths annually,
Having greater regional interconnectivity can also create a significant number of jobs – from at least 2,000 to 9,000 jobs annually for the region, ... in the renewables manufacturing sector, which includes cables and other related equipment.
