Thailand — Energy Infrastructure

OverWatts maps 251 energy assets in Thailand across 13 layers — the 36th-largest mapped base of 157 countries. They include 111 power plants, 42 oil & gas fields and 36 pipelines. Operating generation capacity is 46.1 GW, led by gas at 74%. Refining capacity is about 540 kb/d.

The companies named on the most assets are PTT Public Co Ltd (32), Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (24) and PTT Exploration and Production PCL (22), counting both ownership and operatorship. Half of Thailand's mapped assets in service predate 2005 (median commissioning year of the 186 with a known date), 38 came online in the past decade and the oldest still listed is Siam Cement Ta Luang Cement Plant, dating from 1948. 24 projects are under construction or proposed, led by South Bangkok power station (2.1 GW).
