Thailand's draft Power Development Plan (PDP 2026) will substantially reshape energy investment and infrastructure. The plan targets clean energy increasing from 65% to 70–80%, enabling major opportunities for SMEs and businesses across renewable energy (solar, wind, biomass), battery storage systems (BESS), smart grids, LNG terminals, and data center infrastructure. The plan prioritizes future technologies including small modular reactors (SMR), hydrogen, and carbon capture (CCS). Private sector involvement will expand significantly compared to the current state-centric model, driven partly by compliance pressures from CBAM and NDC 3.0 carbon frameworks.
