The guiding light of the Thai people The contribution of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej to the Thai people has brought great prosperity to the country. The first project, Bhumibol Dam, was the multipurpose project which has largely benefited irrigation, agriculture, electricity, communication, and others. The dam has also originated the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT). 8 Message from the Chairman Thailand in the year 2016 suffered a great loss from the passing of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej. All Thai people mourn the passing of our beloved monarch whom we give high reverence. His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej was the EGAT is grateful for the benevolence of His soul of nation. Throughout 70 years of his reign, His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej, His Majesty King Majesty performed a lot of royal duties. Among these Maha Vajiralongkorn Bodindradebayavarangkun, and were his countless visits to various villages in remote the royal family graciously extended to EGAT in various areas all over the country. With great concern about the occasions including the inauguration of EGAT’s dams well-being of his subjects particularly the problem of and power plants and the names granted to EGAT’s insufficient water resource for farmers which were the dams. Such benevolence will be an encouragement majority of the people, His Majesty gave an initiative in for EGAT in performing its mission with utmost effort making use of the water resource and the by-product for the benefit of the people. in electricity generation. From this initiative, a large number of royal initiated projects on water resource In 2016, EGAT has implemented the project development and electricity generation have been in and conducted activities on the royal contributions to existence throughout the country. EGAT was honored the country of His Majesty King Bhumibol comprising to take part in the construction of dams and reservoirs 9 areas namely 1) Sustainable country development of several projects. 2) Invention and innovation 3) Forest and water conservation 4) Sufficiency and overcoming poverty 5) His Majesty also gave importance to forest Farmers care 6) Education 7) Saving 8) Dedication and resource by conserving the fertility of the upstream donation 9) Promoting good people. The activities have forest, forest restoration, and reforestation. Focus was been held with participation of all sectors in EGAT’s given to natural reforestation together with planned sites across the country and will last until 2017. reforestation. Responding to the royal initiative, EGAT has prepared and implemented several reforestation For EGAT’s operation in 2016, EGAT was projects since 1994. Presently, the total number of the successful in supplying sufficient electricity to meet planted trees which have survived and grown is more the power demand. The overall net peak demand of than 80 million covering an area of over 460,000 rai.

  • Renewable Energy Developments and Potential In
    Renewable Energy Developments and Potential for the Greater Mekong Subregion This report was produced under the technical assistance project Promoting Renewable Energy, Clean Fuels, and Energy Efficiency in the Greater Mekong Subregion (TA 7679). It focused on renewable energy developments and potential in five countries in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS): Cambodia, the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Myanmar, Thailand, and Viet Nam. It assessed the potential of solar, wind, biomass, and biogas as sources of renewable energy. Technical considerations include the degree and SUBREGION MEKONG IN THE GREATER AND POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS ENERGY RENEWABLE intensity of solar irradiation, average wind speeds, backup capacity of grid systems, availability and quality of agricultural land for biofuel crops, and animal manure concentrations for biogas digester systems. Most GMS governments have established plans for reaching these targets and have implemented policy, regulatory, and program measures to boost solar, wind, biomass, and biogas forms of renewable energy. Incentives for private sector investment in renewable energy are increasingly emphasized. About the Asian Development Bank ADB’s vision is an Asia and Pacific region free of poverty. Its mission is to help its developing member countries reduce poverty and improve the quality of life of their people. Despite the region’s many successes, it remains home to the majority of the world’s poor. ADB is committed to reducing poverty through inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable growth, and regional integration. Based in Manila, ADB is owned by 67 members, including 48 from the region. Its main instruments for helping its developing member countries are policy dialogue, loans, equity investments, guarantees, grants, and technical assistance.

  • Life Cycle Assessment and Feasibility Study of Small Wind Power in Thailand
    Life Cycle Assessment and Feasibility Study of Small Wind Power in Thailand Adam Carr, Mark Drosnes, Keith Glassbrook, Reade Oakley Abstract The Thai government’s implementation of its 10 year renewable energy plan was done to help increase energy independence and reduce emissions resulting from energy production. Due to Thailand’s wind regime, wind turbines which can operate in low wind speeds will be needed to meet this goal. Small wind turbines typically operate at higher efficiency in lower winds, and thus they might prove to be a good option for wind power production in Thailand. Incorporating small wind turbines into power production can be difficult because of the perception of high investment costs and because their net benefit has not been adequately studied. Using a functional unit of producing 50 kWh per month for 10 years we conducted a Life Cycle Assessment comparing the global warming potential (GWP), embodied energy (EE), and levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of four small wind turbines (≤ 20 kW), a diesel generator, and the Thai Grid. When analyzing GWP of the turbines it was found that they had a lower overall GWP than the diesel generator when in areas with reasonable wind resources. The same is true for embodied energy. Interestingly, in most available wind speed categories in Thailand the LCOE for wind turbines was lower than for the diesel generator. However, neither could compare to the LCOE of the Thai Grid, except in the areas with the highest average wind speeds (7.0 -9.4 m/s). With this in mind, it is clear that the most important factor when considering wind power generation is the wind regime available in an area.

The application of NRE technologies and better efficiency in energy’s use could help decrease dependence on fossil fuels. One of energy’s commodities that warrants attention is wind energy. However, the development of wind power plants in Indonesia has many barriers. The low level of trust in wind availability and the high investment costs are the main barriers to its development. The current capacity of wind energy power plants in Indonesia installed is 1.96 MW, whereas the total amount wind energy available in Indonesia is 970MW.
