Everyday Energy shortage rewinds the growth of economic development, gradually situation become more severe with the increasing electricity shortage, countries are worried about future energy security due to scarcity and environmental impacts of fossil fuels become apparent. Renewable Energy sources (solar, wind, hydro and biomass) are becoming a more important energy option in the future generation systems. Investment to Hydro Power and Regional Grid interconnection may be proper step to meet

In this paper a neat demonstration will be given on how regional Grid interconnection and hydropower system helps to build in Sustainable regional energy security among SAARC countries. A detailed research on the prospect of Grid Interconnection and hydropower resource for regional energy security was done during the period June-November, 2012 at Pabna Science and Technology University (PSTU).
