Thailand's power development plan (PDP) public hearing revealed significant stakeholder concerns over LNG dependency, carbon capture storage (CCS) viability, and small modular reactor (SMR) feasibility. Key demands include full transparency on fuel-cost assumptions, reassessment of CCS as a core strategy given high costs, and acceleration of renewable energy targets to match Vietnam's pace. The planning committee indicated openness to revisions post-2037 and acknowledged renewable energy could be viable if cost assumptions and grid-stability concerns are addressed, but emphasized that all pathway options remain aligned with the country's Net Zero goals.
