The government awarded 24 projects with a BESS component in 2022 with these having a total capacity of 994 MW; Thailand intends to source nearly 35,000 MW of new electricity from renewables as it looks to reach carbon neutrality and net zero commitments. However, the deployment of Battery Energy Storage Systems across the country remains …
Thailand may lack the Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) necessary to navigate supply and demand challenges. The 2024 PDP draft included 10,000 MW of BESS, but this may see the country struggle to fulfil carbon neutrality and Net Zero commitments over the coming decades.
Thailand’s energy strategy aims to bolster energy security, keep electricity costs economically viable, reduce environmental impacts, and enhance efficiency across its power systems . One of the plan’s core strategies is to expand renewable energy capacity, targeting a diverse mix including solar, wind, biomass, biogas, and waste-to-energy sources.
Integration of Smart Grids: The implementation of smart grid technologies is a critical component of Thailand’s energy roadmap. Smart grids will enhance the management and distribution of electricity, support the integration of distributed energy resources (DER), and facilitate the widespread use of electric vehicles (EVs) .
Their total combined storage capacity was 994 MW. Interestingly, this allowed generators to sign semi-firm power purchase agreements (PPAs) with the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) with minimum availability guarantees. Many solar projects in Thailand have non-firm PPAs in place due to a lack of storage on site.
Many solar projects in Thailand have non-firm PPAs in place due to a lack of storage on site. Arrangements, including BESS, reduce the strain on power grid infrastructure and allow for better planning. On the downside, these do not improve grid stability, nor do they provide power generators with more pathways to increase revenue.
This is partly due to a lack of clarity on how battery storage fits into existing electricity infrastructure. In 2022, the Thai government approved 24 BESS projects, all of which were located alongside solar operations. Their total combined storage capacity was 994 MW.
