Thailand distributed energy systems

4 FAQs about Thailand distributed energy systems

What is Thailand doing to manage grid volatility?

Thailand is currently carrying out pilot projects for the development of an advanced grid system to better manage the grid volatility that accompanies the introduction of renewable energy. The private sector is also pursuing opportunities to develop projects with battery energy storage system (BESS) technologies.

What is the power generating capacity in Thailand?

The total installed power generating capacity in Thailand is approximately 53 gigawatts as of December 2022 generated by EGAT, independent power producers (IPPs), small power producers (SPPs), very small power producers (VSPPs), and imports. Renewable energy capacity is around 23% of the total installed capacity.

Why is power system flexibility important in Thailand?

With the growing share of renewable energy and emerging technologies, establishing and maintaining adequate flexibility is an important part of Thailand's power system development and modernisation, and the country's clean energy transition. Power system flexibility is crucial for ensuring security of supply.

What technologies are being used to facilitate Thailand's energy transition?

Other energy and energy related technologies being sought to facilitate Thailand's energy transition are Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS), hydrogen, Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAFs), grid modernization and digitalization, power system operation and management, and Small Modular Reactors (SMR).
