This five-volume set presents the findings of an ADB regional technical assistance study which developed sector-specific best practices for promoting private sector participation in key infrastructure sectors in ADB's developing member countries.
The best practices cover the role of government, institutional reform, strategic planning, legal and regulatory frameworks, unbundling and competition, contractual arrangements, sources of financing, and the allocation of risk.
This volume examines the optimum approaches for achieving benefits for consumers of electricity through power sector restructuring, unbundling, the introduction of competition, and privatization.
2000.

Each volume is divided into two parts. Part 1 presents an overview of the study covering the growth of private sector infrastructure investment in Asia, cross-sectoral issues, and a summary of the best practices for each sector. Part 2 comprises the specific sector report.
