Abstract

In many developing economies, faces have now started turning towards wind energy generation and regulations are adapted or put in place for this new use of the wind. This paper investigates policies that support implementation of wind energy, and their effects have been examined in perspective of three developing countries: Turkey, Egypt and Pakistan. The wind energy generation targets and the related promotional policies being adopted have been analyzed. A frame work, consisting policies for price setting and quantity forcing, cost reduction and public investment, market facilitation and grid interconnection regulations was selected for the comparative analysis. For each country the above areas were attended to see which regulation is favorable, unfavorable or under discussion by the policy makers. Finally the regulations and effects have been compared and possible changes have been discussed for policy and regulation in wind energy in Pakistan.
