| Summary: | Electricity is a critical resource for a country as it powers devices and enables modern living with digital transactions, crypto mining, deployment of electric vehicles (EV) etc. Given these emerging activities, electricity demand is forecasted to keep rising. The peak electricity load in Thailand for 2018, 29,969 MW, will likely increase to 53,997 MW by 2037. However, Thailand, as a party to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, must consider negative impacts on the environment from electricity generation. To meet these challenges, renewable resources are needed for cleaner electricity generation and ensuring security of electricity supply, while simultaneously minimizing any adverse impact on the environment. |
