6 GOVERNMENT ENERGY POLICY 6

7 Government Energy Policy The current government energy policy was delivered by Prime Minister i Yingluck Sinnawatra to the National Assembly on Tuesday 23 August 2011 Energy Policy 1. Promote and drive the energy sector to generate income for the country. As a strategic industry, investment in energy infrastructure will be increased to make Thailand a regional center for the energy business, building upon the competitiveness i of its strategic location. 2. Reinforce energy security through development of the electrical power grid and exploration of new and existing energy sources, both in Thailand and abroad. Energy sources and types will also be diversified so that Thailand will be able to meet its energy needs from a variety of sustainable energy sources. 7

8 Government Energy Policy Energy Policy 3. Regulate energy prices to ensure fairness as well as reflect the production costs by adjusting the role of the Oil Fund into a fund which ensures price stability. Subsidies will be available for vulnerable groups. The use of natural gas in the transport sector will also be promoted, while the use of gasohol and biodiesel will be promoted for use in the household sector. 4. Support the production, use, research and development of renewable and alternative energy sources, with the objective of replacing 25% of the energy generated by fossil fuels within the next decade. Comprehensive development of the energy industry will also be promoted. 8

9 Government Energy Policy Energy Policy 5. Promote and drive energy conservation through the reduction of power usage in the production process by 25% within the next two decades. The use of energy efficient equipment and buildings will be promoted, while Clean Development Mechanisms (CDM) will be used to reduce emission of Green House Gases and tackle global climate change. Systematically raise consumer awareness to use energy efficient in order to conserve power in the production and transport sectors, as well as in the household. 9
