Power Development Plan (PDP)and its importance • PDP is the long-term strategic plan of the Thai power sector (15-20 years timeframe) • PDP determines the future investment - how many and which types of power plant? • For example, total investment of PDP2010 120 billion USD • PDP also determines the future impacts of the power sector, including environmental, economic, social, and health impacts
Electricity Governance in Thailand, 2nd Assessment (2006-2008) • Aim toward constructive engagement to encourage good governance • Develop and communicate the concept and assessment direction to the stakeholders since the beginning period • Participate and observe the relevant meetings and forums, as well as arrange the public forum on Power Planning for local communities and energy networks • Through the multi-stakeholders Advisory Committee, develop the indicators as well as review the draft report
Electricity Governance Assessment (2nd Assessment)The part on Power Development Planning2007 • Apply the indicators from EGT and review the draft report by multi-stakeholders advisory committee • Comprise of four parts, 14 indicators • Transparency and access to information • Participation • Capacity • Accountability and redress mechanism
Electricity Governance Assessment on PDP2007 • Many governance problems in the PDP2007, reflecting from many indicators in all four parts • Leading to questions for the approval of the PDP2007 and then, problems in the implementation, for example • much higher fuel price than the assumptions in the PDP • conflicts and protests in all four IPP projects and none can proceed to construction until the present
The policy forPower Development Planning 2010 • On 7th October 2009, Ministry of Energy announced the ‘Green PDP’ policy for PDP2010 • Systematic public participation process • Reduce GHG emission from PDP2007 • Introducing ‘End-Use’ approach for demand forecast • Following the targets in the Renewable Energy DevelopmentPlan 2007-2022 by Ministry of Energy • Open for different PDP options and performing Impact Assessment to compare these options
Governance problems of the recentPower Development Plan 2010-2030 • MoE made the first draft of PDP2010 since January 2010 without any public inputs or participation • MoE made decision not to use the ‘End-Use Approach’ study, commissioned by themselves
Governance problems of the recentPower Development Plan 2010-2030 • The first public hearing on draft PDP2010 on 17th Feb., while the ‘Long-term GDP Growth’ study, commissioned by MoE is not finished yet. • The second public hearing on 8th Mar. on draft PDP2010, only four days after a technical hearing on the ‘Long-term GDP Growth’ study
Governance problems of the recentPower Development Plan 2010-2030 • The Senate Sub-Committee on PDP arranged two public forums on 4th and 11th March, with representative of MoE said that ‘they will postpone the submission for approval’ due to the ‘Red Shirt’ protest and demonstration • The National Energy Policy Council approved PDP2010 on 12th March and the government approved on 23rd March, during severe political conflicts in the society

An Alternative PDP • Needed new capacity- Peak demand 52,890 MW in 2030 - Reserve Margin at 15% would need 60,824 MW in 2030 - Not 65,547 MW in 2030 as determined in PDP2010 - Need better arrangement of all Installed Capacity
DSM in PDP2010 Saving target of T5 high efficiency light bulb program 2010-2019 Save 0.3% ofthe peak demand in 20 years Saving target of DSM program for 2020-2030 14
DSM in PDP2010 DSM inPDP2010 Press meeting by MoE “T5high efficiency light bulbprogram will save around8,708GWh per year or reduce the expenses of 26,124million Baht per year” Average saving of1,170 GWh/year Ref. : EPPO 17th Feb. 2010 http://www.eppo.go.th/power/pdp/page-5.html Ref. : EPPO 29/09/2009. http://www.eppo.go.th/Thaienergynews/Energy_News/showNewsDetail.aspx?NewsOID=4701&GroupOID=7&SubGroupOID=22&ObjectID=3
DSM&EE Potential inthe Industrial Sector • Financially viable potential, around 42% of total demand in the Industrial Sector (Tira Foran, 2010) • Consider achievable savings and achievable facilities • Market potential in 10 year • Save 10% of total demand in the sector • Around 10,498 GWh , 1,680 MW
An Alternative PDP • Renewable Energy- Follow the High Renewables scenario of the draft PDP2010- Target of 8,581 MW in 2030- Adjust the growth to achieve the goal of 5,608 MW in the Renewable Energy Development Plan 2007-2022 by MoE
Numbers of Renewable Energy Projects applying for Investment Promotion
An Alternative PDP • Co-generation and Tri-generation, that have much higher energy efficiency, when compared to conventional power plants- Follow the target in the draft PDP2010 8,631 MW in 2030- But will rebuild the existing projects, which will be retired during 2010-2030 1,798 MW • Repowering, or building new power plant at the site of retired plant • 13,600 MW
Strategic Impact Assessmenton differentPDP options • Impact on energy security • Import burden andGDP contribution • GHG emission • Air pollution and waste • Health impacts • Job creation Should be share and discuss through public deliberation process
DSM/EE is the cheapest energy option, but PDP2010 chose the expensive ones andtry to make them look cheap, like coal and nuclear Comparison of electricity cost from different options in Pacific Northwest, USA.

ROIC and Investment Efficiency • Using Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) as the main criteria for setting electricity tariff may lead to over investment • since more investment means more profit • Strong regulation on investment plans is needed, but the Regulators still lack of data, knowledge, and human resources to check and balance • The approval of the tariff is still with the National Energy Policy Council 4.8% Result: Over Demand Forecastand prefer high investment options
The cycle of supporting more investment under ‘monopoly’ power OverDemand Forecast Power Planningthat preferhigh investment options 1 Benefits of utilities, energy companies, etc. 2 3 Electricity tariff that allow the pass on of excess costs to consumers
Ft : Fuel AdjustmentCharge • EGAT: a part of the electricity tariff that increase or decrease automatically, according to changes in fuel costs and other uncontrol costs • The mechanism to pass on the costs to consumers, which includes • Fuel costs • Electricity price for private producers and import (including profit guarantee, compensation for inflation and exchange rate) • Expenses according to government policies (e.g. Community Development Funds, ‘Adder’ for renewable energy, etc.) • Compensation for lower sale (or over investment)

Recommendations to improvethe PDP process • Change the ROIC to Performance-based regulation • IntroduceContracted Demand to large electricity users (e.g. more than 10 MW) • Improve the Ft by excluding the compensation for lower sale • DSM should be considered as one investment option for electricity supply • Compare various draft PDPs, according to Government policies and planning objectives • Integrated Resource Planning; IRP • Various forums, dialogue, etc. for public deliberation
