Government agencies are set to approve a 1,400-megawatt gas-fired power plant project in Surat Thani this year, replacing two highly contentious coal-fired power plant projects in the southern region.
The 34-billion-baht facility, to be built in Phunphin district, is expected to receive the green light in the fourth quarter by the Energy Ministry, the National Energy Policy Council and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.
Its development will be carried out by state-run Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (Egat), following its months-long feasibility study of the project.
Egat governor Boonyanit Wongrukmit said the project will replace controversial coal-fired power plant projects in Krabi and Songkhla s Thepha district, which are expected to be shelved.

Postive signs seen in first half of the year
published : 13 Jul 2021 at 04:09 Power demand is expected to grow this year after a 3% decline in 2019.
State-run Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (Egat) estimates electricity output and imports this year to rise by 1.68% to 195.16 billion kilowatt hour (KWH), from 191.93 billion KWH last year, due to a extended hot season and positive socio-economic factors.
Egat governor, Boonyanit Wongrukmit, said the increase is based on assumptions that power demand will be driven by exports, which are expected to grow, and more vaccinated people.
The hot season this year extended into June and July, too, leading to greater use of air conditioners.
