6 FAQs about [Bangkok Grid Energy Storage Project]
What is the southern Thailand wind power and battery energy storage project?
The Southern Thailand Wind Power and Battery Energy Storage Project is the first private sector initiative in Thailand to integrate utility-scale wind power generation with a battery energy storage system. Photo courtesy of BCPG.
Does Thailand need a battery energy storage system?
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.
Why is battery storage a problem in Thailand?
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.
How will lomligor improve Thailand's energy security?
“This will enhance the resilience of the region’s electricity grid, provide energy security for communities, and support economic growth across the country.” “Lomligor is the first wind power plant in Thailand to adopt energy storage system technology as the solution to the intermittency of wind power,” said BCPG President Bundit Sapianchai.
When will a new electricity project start in Thailand?
This project is planned to start in April 2022, and will be commercial in December. By then, it can provide clean electricity for Thai people with constant power, help improve the overall stability and security of Thai power grid, and quicken Thai’s step to realize the National 4.0 Strategy.
Why do some solar projects in Thailand have non-firm PPAs?
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.
