Renewable energy in Thailand is a developing sector that addresses the country’s present high rate of carbon emissions. [1] Several policies, such as the Thirteenth Plan or the Alternative Energy Development Plan, set future goals for increasing the capacity of renewable energy and reduce the reliance of nonrenewable energy.
According to Thailand's Power Development Plan for 2015-2036, [41] [42] the country intends to build 20 additional gas-powered electrical generating stations (17,728 MWe), nine "clean coal" power stations (7,390 MWe), and 14,206 MW of renewable energy, including hydro, a large proportion of which will be imported from Laos or Myanmar. Up to two ...
Thailand's "Energy Efficiency Plan 2015" (EEP2015) and "Alternative Energy Development Plan 2015-2036" (AEDP2015) lay out the nation's plans to conserve energy and move to renewable energy. [4] Both plans have the same period, ending in 2036. [5] AEDP's goal is for renewable energy to contribute 30% of Thailand's total energy production by 2036 ...
The National Soft Power Strategy Committee was established with the objective of setting goals for driving government policy (1 family 1 soft power) to integrate the operations of government agencies and the private sector to be efficient, and it is consistent with the development of Thailand's potential to international countries.

Thailand's Power Development Plan (PDP). [4] is the nation's roadmap for electric power generation, distribution, and consumption. The plan, prepared by the Ministry of Energy (MOE) and EGAT, is issued iteratively. The previous edition, PDP2010 Revision 3, covered the years 2012-2030.
PDP2015 projects that Thailand's CO 2 emissions from power generation will rise from 86,998,000 tons in 2015 to 104,075,000 tons in 2036. [18]: 7–1 Thailand's newest power development plan, PDP2018, is expected to be issued in September 2018. [7]
The latest plan to develop alternative energy in Thailand is the Alternative Energy Development Plan (AEDP). The plan aims to increase the share of renewable energy in the total energy production to 25 percent. [11] The share of renewable energy stands at 11.91 percent as of 2014. [1] [12]
The dam was opened in 1964 and is owned and operated by the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT). As of 2000, large-scale hydropower generation in Thailand had reached almost 3 gigawatts (GW), and development has since slowed as concerns were raised on environmental impacts of large hydropower plants.
