Abstract
Institutions & Energy Policy
The Ministry of Electricity and Energy (MOEE) coordinates the energy policy. It is also responsible for policy-related matters for the oil and gas industry. The ministry was created by the merger of the Ministry of Energy and Ministry of Electric Power in 2016.
Energy Supply
Resources:
Myanmar has abundant energy resources, particularly hydropower and natural gas. The country's theoretical hydroelectricity potential, only a small part of which is being exploited, is estimated at 100 GW.
Energy Prices
Electricity:
Electricity tariffs are fixed by the Government. They are highly subsidised for households. In 2020, the price of electricity was US$5.0c/kWh for households and US$10.39c/kWh for industrial customers.
Energy Consumption
In 2020, consumption per capita was 0.45 toe. Electricity consumption per capita is among the lowest in Asia (around 370 kWh in 2020 vs 1 515 kWh in the ASEAN).
Total energy consumption rose rapidly until 2018 (7%/year on average between 2010 and 2017) and has progressed more slowly since then (2.5%/year), reaching 24 Mtoe in 2020.
Issues & Prospects
Electricity:
The National Electricity Master Plan (2014) forecasts a 38% share of hydro in the power mix, 20% share of natural gas, and a 33% share of coal and 9% of wind and solar in 2030. It was used to compute the BAU scenario in the updated NDC.
