FAQS
What is the South Bangkok power plant project (extension)?
The South Bangkok Power Plant Project (Extension) will be located in Bang Prong Sub-district, Mueang District, Samut Prakan Province. It will be a single shaft combined cycle power plant with three 700 MW units. The units will primarily use LNG from EGAT’s floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) with diesel as a secondary fuel.
What is pumped storage hydropower (PSH)?
This effort aims to stabilize the clean energy supply, supplementing solar and wind power, which are subject to weather fluctuations. Egat's feasibility study focuses on implementing pumped storage hydropower (PSH) technology at the dams. Deputy Governor Tawatchai Sumranwanich explains that PSH involves two reservoirs at different elevations.
How much does power generation cost in India?
The power generation cost is relatively low, around two baht per kilowatt-hour. The three targeted dams are the Chulabhorn dam in Chaiyaphum with an 801 MW capacity, the Vajiralongkorn dam in Kanchanaburi with 891 MW, and the Kathun dam in Nakhon Si Thammarat with 780 MW. They are expected to commence operations in 2034, 2036, and 2037.
