Thailand's Energy Policy and Planning Office is drafting the Power Development Plan 2026 (PDP 2026), extending the planning horizon to 2050. The plan aims for renewable energy to represent at least 51% of the power mix by 2037, potentially increasing to 60%.
Innovations such as the BioCycle Kiln in Chiang Rai are converting agricultural waste into biochar and construction materials, reducing air pollution and agricultural costs. This technology supports the country's shift towards waste-to-energy solutions and aligns with the accelerated Net Zero Emissions target of 2050.
Additionally, the PDP includes Small Modular Reactors and hydrogen blending with natural gas. The emphasis on community power and public access to clean energy aims to enhance sustainability and energy security.
