International News: Thailand's Green Power Trading Pilot Set to Launch.
Thailand's Energy Regulatory Commission recently announced that the highly anticipated **Direct Power Purchase Agreement (DPPA)** pilot program is in its final confirmation stage and is expected to launch by the end of this year. The new policy allows businesses to directly buy green electricity from renewable developers, marking a shift from the traditional power procurement model.
*Key Policy Highlights
Pilot Scope: Businesses can procure up to 2,000 MW of clean energy through third-party systems.
Focus: The DPPA is a key reform in Thailand’s power market. The Energy Regulatory Commission is working on third-party access rules and transmission fee standards, with the pilot phase focusing on renewable energy for data centers.
*Thailand’s Green Power Policy Impact & Investment Opportunities
As global pressure for low-carbon transformation intensifies, international businesses—especially large energy consumers—are increasingly urging Thailand to adopt more flexible green power policies to remain competitive in attracting investment. These policy shifts strengthen Thailand’s position in regional competition and help draw foreign capital from industries that require 100% renewable energy in their operations.
At the same time, as natural gas–based power generation declines, Thailand is accelerating its transition toward renewable energy. Mechanisms such as DPPA will play a critical role by providing businesses with stable access to green power while creating new opportunities for renewable energy developers through long-term power purchase agreements.
