EGAT Overview BACK FRONT With concern for sustainable power security, EGAT has considered various factors and limitations in all aspects, including power capacity planning, development of innovation and technology, public participation, and social and environmental responsibility. EGAT is determined to innovate power solutions for a better life of Thais both today and in the future. “EGAT Power for Thai Happiness” INCOVER INCOVER Introduction Over a half century, the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) has existed alongside the Thai Society as a state enterprise responsible for power system security. With advanced and eco-friendly power generation technology and transmission system, EGAT ensures the response to electricity demand, a crucial driver for development of economic growth and the country. To keep itself abreast of rapid changes, EGAT gets ready to be adjusted and has developed innovations on electrical power, including Hydro-Floating Solar Hybrid System, RE Forecast Center, Energy Storage System, coupled with the power generation from EGAT main power plants, to enhance security and stability of the power system. In addition to power generation, EGAT continually promotes the responsibility on society, communities, and environment, through energy-saving and environmental conservation projects, such as EGAT Reforestation Project, Green Learning Room Project, No.5 Energy Saving Labeling Project, along with EGAT Leaning Centers nationwide to share knowledge with the society. All of these are to bring about sustainable happiness of all Thais. Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand March 2020 2 EGAT Overview EGAT Profile The Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) was established by virtue of the EGAT Act B.E. 2511 (1968) on May 1, 1969 which merges assets and operations of the 3 previous state enterprises, namely Yanhee Electricity Authority (YEA), Lignite Authority (LA), and North-East Electricity Authority (NEEA). EGAT is responsible for generating, acquiring, and supplying electricity to Metropolitan Electricity Authority (MEA), Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA), legal power users, and neighboring countries. EGAT is also responsible for power related activities and services, including providing power plant operation and maintenance services and producing and selling lignite. At present, EGAT is a state enterprise under the Ministry of Energy and under supervision of the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) that regulates energy industry operations, sets the tariff for the fairness between producers and consumers, and ensures the security of the power system. 3 Vision and Mission Innovate Power Vision Solutions for a Better Life Be the country’s main organization to secure the power reliability and enhance Mission competitiveness of the nation through innovation for Thai happiness. 4 EGAT Overview Corporate Core Value and Culture EGAT has “SPEED” as the Corporate Core Value and Culture for the employees to adhere, contributing to its success, as follows: Sense of Belonging Feeling compatibly engaged and loyalty to the organization and holding a strong feeling of ownership Protect the reputation and benefits of EGAT Devote to the duties and the organization Have teamwork spirits Performance Excellence Being professional and multi-skilled Be committed to EGAT achievement Set challenging goals Hold high responsibility and accountability 5 Ethic & Integrity Leading life based on social code of conduct and good governance principles Be honest Comply with the rules and regulations Perform with Treat others fairly anti-corruption policy Enthusiasm for Innovation Thriving for new ideas and methods for the business and society Improving for a better process Dare to dream, dare to fail, dare to try Get “lean” with new technologies Devotion to Society Be mindful of the country, community, and environment Have public consciousness Sense of Belonging Promote mutual understanding between EGAT Feeling compatibly engaged and loyalty to the and stakeholders organization and holding a strong feeling of ownership Protect the reputation and benefits of EGAT Corporate Governance Devote to the duties and the organization EGAT’s operation is based on 6 pillars of good corporate governance consisting of: Have teamwork spirits Rules of law : Complying with rules and regulation Moral integrity : Embracing the morality and cultural values Transparency : Encouraging transparent working process and disclosing information for inspection process Participation : Being open-minded and having teamwork spirits Responsibility and accountability : Daring to try new things, being responsible to duties, and enthusiastically solving the problems Effectiveness and efficiency : Utilizing limited resources for the optimal benefits 6 EGAT Overview Electric Power Structure of Thailand Thailand has adopted the Enhanced Single Buyer Model (ESB) which authorizes EGAT to be in charge of a dominant electricity supply and the sole buyer of electricity. EGAT also serves as the System Operator for the National Control Center, which controls the dispatch of power plants, electricity generation, and transmission nationwide, efficiently. In addition, the Energy Policy and Planning Office (EPPO), Ministry of Energy is responsible for national energy policies and plans, while the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) regulates energy industry operation, including electricity price. Meanwhile, there are the policies launched to promote private sector participation in Thailand’s power market, including Independent Power Producers (IPP), Small Power Producers (SPP), and Very Small Power Producers (VSPP) for the power purchase from renewable energy. 7 Enhanced Single Buyer Model Government Sector Generation Policy EGAT IPPs Foreign Power Purchase SPPs Transmission EGAT Transmission System Operator Distribution MEA PEA End Users Regulation Direct Customers End Users However, the recent growth of Independent Power Supply (IPS) might affect the power sector and probably increases the possibility of electric power structure transformation in the future. 8 EGAT Overview System Installed Generating Capacity EGAT presently owns approximately 34% of total power capacity in the country, while the rest are owned by private power companies and purchased from neighboring countries. 15,424.83 MW 14,948.50 MW 9,481.32 MW 5,720.60 MW 33.84% 32.81% 20.80% 12.55% EGAT’s IPPs SPPs Cross-border Power Plants Power Purchase Total 45,575.25MW As of February 29, 2020 9 Types of EGAT Power Plants EGAT power generation facilities divided into 5 types, namely renewable energy, thermal, combined cycle, diesel, and other are located in 50 sites across the country. 23.90% 49.61% Thermal Combined Cycle 3,687.00 MW 7,652.00 MW 19.81% 0.20% Renewable Energy Diesel 3,055.43 MW 30.40 MW 6.48% Total Other 1,000.00 MW 15,424.83MW As of February 29, 2020 10 EGAT Overview EGAT Power Plants Installed Capacity 15,424.83 MW Small Hydropower Plant As of February 29, 2020 Nam Pung Dam Ban Santi Mae Ngat 6.00 MW 1.28 MW Somboon Chon Dam 9.00 MW 1.

  • Assessment of Greater Mekong Subregion Economic Corridors
    About the Assessment of Greater Mekong Subregion Economic Corridors The transformation of transport corridors into economic corridors has been at the center of the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) Economic Cooperation Program since 1998. The Asian Development Bank (ADB) conducted this Assessment to guide future investments and provide benchmarks for improving the GMS economic corridors. This Assessment reviews the state of the GMS economic corridors, focusing on transport infrastructure, particularly road transport, cross-border transport and trade, and economic potential. This assessment consists of six country reports and an integrative report initially presented in June 2018 at the GMS Subregional Transport Forum. About the Greater Mekong Subregion Economic Cooperation Program The GMS consists of Cambodia, the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Myanmar, the People’s Republic of China (specifically Yunnan Province and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region), Thailand, and Viet Nam. In 1992, with assistance from the Asian Development Bank and building on their shared histories and cultures, the six countries of the GMS launched the GMS Program, a program of subregional economic cooperation. The program’s nine priority sectors are agriculture, energy, environment, human resource development, investment, telecommunications, tourism, transport infrastructure, and transport and trade facilitation. About the Asian Development Bank ADB is committed to achieving a prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable Asia and the Pacific, while sustaining

It has been composed by the author and has not been previously submitted for examination which has led to the award of a degree. The copyright of this thesis belongs to the author under the terms of the United Kingdom Copyright Acts as qualified by University of Strathclyde Regulation 3.50. Due acknowledgement must always be made of the use of any material contained in, or derived from, this thesis. Signed: Darren MacIntyre Date:14/07/2020 2 Abstract The UK has committed to ambitious targets relating to renewable energy technology and greenhouse gas reduction. Electrical power generation from non-polluting and sustainable sources plays an important role in this regard. Floating photovoltaic farms (FPV) have great potential when co-located with hydropower plant. Benefits include water preservation and higher power generation efficiency, no land costs, lower construction costs, reduction of algae, and lowering of natural methane emissions that come from standing bodies of water. The market for FPV is dominated by nations where tropical or dry arid conditions prevail. The extent to which an FPV-PHS plant in the North of Scotland is feasible was assessed in this study. Foyer PHS operational data was collected and analysed, then modelled in HOMER Pro with proposed FPV of 125MW and 250MW installed capacities overlaid, using generic bifacial and standard monocrystalline PV panels.

  • Part Iii Hydro-Hydraulic Modelling
    PART III HYDRO-HYDRAULIC MODELLING Vol. I: Main Report, Part III: Hydro-Hydraulic Modelling WUP-JICA, March 2004 PART III HYDRO-HYDRAULIC MODELLING 1. DEVELOPMENT OF HYDRO-HYDRAULIC MODEL FOR THE CAMBODIAN FLOODPLAINS 1.1 Background of Model Development This Part III of the Main Report outlines all modelling activities carried out during the entire period of the WUP-JICA project/study including the model origin in the Mekong Basin and a similar improvement in the related project. In the initial stage of the study, some hydro-hydraulic simulation models were needed simultaneously with the monitoring activities to verify the observed data and to clarify the hydrological or hydraulic mechanisms in the basin. After a series of discussions with the MRCS due to the apprehension on overlapping of activities with the WUP-A and WUP-FIN projects, the WUP-JICA Team had decided to take over and further develop the model developed by the recently completed project of MRC. A brief description of the first study on the Mekong where MIKE 11 has been applied applied and the link to the other project where the model was used simultaneously with the WUP-JICA study for detailed flood analysis is herein presented. The part also explains the concepts of the two model systems applied; namely, the rainfall-runoff model and the hydraulic river and floodplain model. The coupling of the two models was studied as well. A detailed description of the topographical and structural data used for model construction is herein given, the hydrological and hydraulic data applied for model calibration or verification is described, and the detailed layout of the models together with the calibration or verification results for the years 1998-2001 is presented.

E-mail address: [email protected] Received: 25 January 2018; Accepted: 15 May 2018 Abstract Health issues have increased among monks in Thailand due to food consumption behavior diet based on food offered by Buddhists at present. Most foods offered by Thai Buddhists are often rich in carbohydrates and fat which may contribute to the monks’ declining health. The objective of this research was to survey foods and analyze nutritional value of food offered to monks by Thai Buddhists. Cross-sectional survey revealed that the most common dishes are five-spice eggs (Kai Palo), Spicy minced pork (Larb moo), sour soup with mixed vegetables (Kaeng Som Pak Reum), omelet (Kai jieow) and curry with pickled bamboo shoots (Kaeng Pet Nor Mai Dong). Simple random sampling methods were used to collect samples. Samples of these popular dishes were collected from different restaurants and recipes and analyzed using the nutritional analysis program, INMUCAL V.3. The results from each 100 g of food showed that the five-spice eggs contained the most sodium and sugar (654.70 mg and 5.53 g, respectively). Spicy minced pork provided the highest carbohydrates, protein and calories (23.98 g, 14.29 g and 231.65 kcal, respectively).
