In 1993, Thailand initiated a
demand-side management (DSM) program to help curb
electricity demand growth and promote more energy-efficient
equipment and cost-effective energy services within the
country. Since then, the Electricity Generating Authority of
Thailand (EGAT), the national generation and transmission
utility's DSM Office has developed a strong portfolio
of DSM measures, including 19 DSM programs targeting a wide
range of sub-sectors and end-uses, and substantially
surpassed its original peak reduction and energy
conservation targets. EGAT has created substantial public
awareness of energy conservation and actively promoted
private sector participation in promoting such services.
And, EGAT's DSM Office has been recognized
internationally for its success in designing DSM programs
that fit within an Asian context as well as its innovation
and partnershis with other agencies. While the overall
Program results have been positive, EGAT has had limited
impacts in certain areas and experienced a number of
implementation issues, many of which are now being resolved.
This report examines the creation of Thailand's DSM
program, discusses programs and results to date, offers
analyses and lessons learned from the Program, and discusses
future prospects for DSM programs in Thailand and elsewhere. |
