Highlights

  • The forthcoming National Energy Plan will include an objective of 50% of renewables in new power capacity by 2040.
  • The oil and gas sector is dominated by national company PTT.
  • State-owned electricity company EGAT is the largest power generator, with 35% of total capacity.
  • Gas production has decreased by 30% since 2014.
  • Natural gas is by far the first energy source for power generation (62% in 2021).
  • Electricity prices increased between 2016 and 2019 due to higher fuel costs before decreasing to 2018's level.
  • Energy consumption slightly recovered in 2021 after a 8% drop in 2020.
  • Oil products still account for 54% of final energy consumption.
  • The new National Energy Plan 2022 will significantly increase the share of renewables at the expense of gas and coal.
  • LNG development and gas market liberalisation will remain strategic to secure gas imports and reserves.

Abstract

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    The Ministry of Energy is responsible for energy policy development through the Energy Policy and Planning Office (EPPO). The National Energy Policy Committee (NEPC), chaired by the Prime Minister, is the decision-making body.

  • Energy Companies

    Oil:

    Petroleum Authority of Thailand (PTT) is the national oil company (63.3% public, of which 51.1% directly held by the Ministry of Finance and 12.2% through the Vayupak Fund).

  • Energy Supply

    Oil:

    The production of liquid hydrocarbons (crude oil and NGL) has been decreasing since 2016 (-23%), after a rapid increase between 2000 and 2016 (6%/year).

  • Energy Prices

    Oil:

    Motor fuel prices are deregulated. Unleaded premium gasoline stood at US$1.12/l in 2021 and diesel at US$0.88/l.

    Gasoline prices in Thailand are two time higher than in Malaysia, while diesel prices are 70% higher (2021). Compared to Vietnam, the difference is around 10-15% (2020).

  • Energy Consumption

    Per capita energy consumption remained at 1.9 toe in 2021 while per capita electricity consumption slightly increased by 2% in 2021 to 2 726 kWh.

  • Issues & Prospects

    Pending the official release of the National Energy Plan (NEP) 2022 planned for Q1 2023, the Thailand Integrated Energy Blueprint (TIEB) 2015 remains in force and defines the energy trajectory until 2036. Oil demand is expected to increase by 3.3%/year until 2036 in the BAU scenario.
