adequate planning is in place to address transmission and distribution
infrastructure deficit. Once, this is achieved the essence of allocating
available resources will be massively optimized in both regions’ energy
landscape.
2.4.4 Role of Developing National Techno-Human
Capabilities
The nature of the energy regulatory framework and the evolving
techno-economic environment of the energy landscape requires adequate
techno-human capability development through regional cooperation.
Regrettably, a well capacitated and diverse teams of stakeholders with
up-to-date knowledge regarding the current and historical architecture of
the energy sector is still missing.
78 What is tenable is a polarized system
of foreign human capabilities that deploy energy strategies alien to the
regions.
Although these foreign experts have the skills and competences
required, they do not have the requisite understanding of the existing
challenges like the local stakeholders in the region’s energy play. Therefore, cross-fertilization of strategies and information sharing whereby
skills will be transferred for the development of indigenous technohuman capabilities, to address the energy challenges should be at the core
of successful regional cooperative efforts.
79 The argument of this work is
that when indigenous techno-human capabilities are developed, it gives
local participants a sense of ownership that may lead to the effective and
efficient management of the energy systems.
