Thailand Electric Power Sector Report 2020/2021

Thailand is the third-largest power producer and consumer in ASEAN, behind Indonesia and Vietnam. Although important, the contribution of the sector to the overall economy is small. The power sector accounted for 2.7% of nominal GDP and about 0.3% of total employment in 2019. Thailand is heavily dependent on natural gas with gas-fired power plants accounting for a 58% share of total power supply. About 12% of total power supply is imported from Laos and Cambodia, while renewable and alternative energy sources account for a 13.1% share. The overall transmission line length amounts to more than 36,400 km and is entirely owned and operated by the state-owned Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT).
