Chiang Mai, Thailand – September 5, 2025 – Wenergy, a leader in energy storage solutions, is proud to announce the successful launch of its Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project in Chiang Mai, Thailand. In partnership with local collaborator TCE, this milestone marks a significant step.
Hitachi ABB Power Grids Ltd., Zürich, Switzerland, has been selected by Impact Solar Limited, a subsidiary of Impact Solar Group Ltd., Bangkok, Thailand, to deploy the e-mesh TM PowerStore TM battery energy storage solution (BESS) and control system as part of Thailand’s largest private microgrid.
Battery energy storage system (BESS) and controls technology will be provided to a “smart industrial park” project in Thailand by Hitachi ABB Power Grids. In what has been described as the country’s largest private microgrid to date, 214MW of distributed energy resources including co-generation gas.
Thailand intends to source nearly 35,000 MW of new electricity from renewables as it looks to reach carbon neutrality and net zero commitments. However, the deployment of Battery Energy Storage Systems across the country remains limited. There are plans to increase storage capacity, but it may not.
Solar and wind, the two key variable renewable energy (VRE) technologies which have been facilitating grid decarbonisation around the world in recent years, only account for a total of four per cent of Thailand's current electricity output. Thailand's decarbonisation commitments in its Nationally. Does Thailand need a battery energy storage system?Thailand may lack the Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) necessary to navigate supply and demand challenges. The 2024 PDP draft included 10,000 MW of BESS, but this may see the country struggle to fulfil carbon neutrality and Net Zero commitments over the coming decades.
How many mw can a solar generator store in Thailand?Their total combined storage capacity was 994 MW. Interestingly, this allowed generators to sign semi-firm power purchase agreements (PPAs) with the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) with minimum availability guarantees. Many solar projects in Thailand have non-firm PPAs in place due to a lack of storage on site.
Why do some solar projects in Thailand have non-firm PPAs?Many solar projects in Thailand have non-firm PPAs in place due to a lack of storage on site. Arrangements, including BESS, reduce the strain on power grid infrastructure and allow for better planning. On the downside, these do not improve grid stability, nor do they provide power generators with more pathways to increase revenue.
Why is battery storage a problem in Thailand?This is partly due to a lack of clarity on how battery storage fits into existing electricity infrastructure. In 2022, the Thai government approved 24 BESS projects, all of which were located alongside solar operations. Their total combined storage capacity was 994 MW.
What is Thailand's energy transformation plan?The project is a prime example of the energy transformation underway across Thailand, as the nation sets a new renewable target of 30 percent of total final energy consumption by 2036 in its Alternative Energy Development Plan.*.
How much electricity will Thailand produce in 2024?These are set to make up 51 percent of the country’s total electricity production, up from 36 percent which was called for in the 2018 PDP. The 2024 PDP draft provided a more detailed breakdown of how Thailand will reach this goal. During the plan’s lifespan, 47,251 MW of new electricity will be sourced with 34,851 MW coming from renewabl
