The majority of Thailand microgrids are driven by public policy and legal flexibility. The key drivers of Thailand microgrid policies are 1) electricity access, 2) wealth creation and distribution, 3) environmental protection, and 4) technology development.
Like many other countries, Thailand developed traditional microgrids in the early era of electrical power system development. Several smart microgrids with the advancement of microgrid technologies and policies have taken place in different locations in Thailand.
The development of microgrids in Thailand has also faced several technical challenges (e.g., reconnection of the grid-connected microgrid to the main utility grid after a fault, and development of a robust control and protection system) as mentioned in Choudhury (2020).
In general, Thailand is a country of microgrid technology buyers, users, and importers, rather than sellers, producers, and exporters. This Thailand microgrid technology position is crucial when seting microgrid policies. It reveals activities of short-term and long-term microgrid development.
The remaining microgrid projects are in the process of development. Most present microgrids in Thailand are driven by public policy and legal flexibility. The objective of this research is
