One of the remarkable features of Thailand’s economic growth during past two decades has been the rapid expansion of industrial sector. Since 1981, the manufacturing sector in Thailand has grown at an average rate of over 10%

Page 3: ENVIRONMENT AND ENERGY ISSUES : ROLES OF SCIENCE …PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN THAILAND Monthip S. Tabucanon ... rapidly in industries such as fabricated metal products, mechinery

The share of manufacture sector in GDP has alsorisen from 23% in (1981) to 29% in (2005). The structureof manufacturing has also changed substantiallyduring the same period. The number of firms has grownrapidly in industries such as fabricated metal products,mechinery and transport equipment.

• Between 2003 to 2004, average energy consumption

in Thailand increased by more than 10% per year.

A major expansion in the electricity sector is

underway in order to meet this rapid projected

increase in demand. Installed capacity is expected

to more than double over the next decade from

approximatally 9,000 megawatts in 1991 to about

19,000 MW in 2001 and up to 25,000 MW by 2006

Thailand has signed memoranda of understanding(MOU) for 3,000 MW for power import from Lao PDR By the year 2006 and for 1,500 MW of power import from Myanmar by the year 2010

Additionally an agreement has been arranged forThe import of 7,500 MW of power from Yunnan’s Jinghong Hydroelectric Project.

Petroleum products, natural gas, coal and lignite

constituted a major share of total energy consumed

in 2004 by 7%. Renewable energy, consisting fuel wood.

paddy husk and baggasse is also significant and

contributed about 26% of total energy required.

VII) CONCLUSIONSVII) CONCLUSIONS

The growing gap between demand and

supply of urban environmental infrastructures

and public services is very significant at the

national and regional levels.

Changes in the demand of energy consumption

have accelerated the pace of urban economic

growth and create the environmental pollution.

Page 108: ENVIRONMENT AND ENERGY ISSUES : ROLES OF SCIENCE …PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN THAILAND Monthip S. Tabucanon ... rapidly in industries such as fabricated metal products, mechinery

With further rapid economic growth and urban clustering expected, the environment and energy situation can only create the problems unless countermeasures are adopted in time.

Research and development on energy and

environment shows that factors such as

institutional arrangement, policies, technology,

partnerships can have a larger impact on

sustainable development.
