Jan 13, 2025 · The Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) has announced plans to develop three pumped storage power plants (PSPPs) at existing dams in Chaiyaphum,
Three more hydropower dams operated by the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (Egat) will be developed into giant “batteries” under a 90-billion-baht investment to supply clean power to the country, easing concerns about insufficient electricity generated by solar and wind power.
This project aims to address power supply gaps caused by intermittent solar and wind energy, explained Tawatchai Sumranwanich, Egat’s deputy governor. The initiative involves converting Chulabhorn Dam in Chaiyaphum, Vajiralongkorn Dam in Kanchanaburi, and Kathun Dam in Nakhon Si Thammarat into pumped storage hydropower (PSH) facilities.
The PSH technology, which Egat successfully implemented at Lamtakong Jolabha Vadhana Dam, stores energy by moving water between reservoirs at different elevations. When electricity demand is low, excess energy pumps water to the upper reservoir, which is then released to generate electricity during high-demand periods.
Egat plans to convert three hydropower dams into giant energy storage facilities, supporting Thailand’s renewable energy needs through a 90-billion-baht pumped storage hydropower project.
This effort aims to stabilize the clean energy supply, supplementing solar and wind power, which are subject to weather fluctuations. Egat's feasibility study focuses on implementing pumped storage hydropower (PSH) technology at the dams. Deputy Governor Tawatchai Sumranwanich explains that PSH involves two reservoirs at different elevations.
The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%. Europe follows closely with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 65% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing scale reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting industrial storage solutions for peak shaving and backup power, with typical payback periods of 2-4 years. Major commercial projects now deploy clusters of 15+ systems creating storage networks with 80+MWh capacity at costs below $270/kWh for large-scale industrial applications.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving industrial energy storage performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal operating conditions with 45% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $85/kWh to $40/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple industrial systems to operate as coordinated energy networks, increasing cost savings by 30% through peak shaving and demand charge management. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and thermal runaway prevention systems have reduced insurance premiums by 35% for industrial storage projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple system additions at just $200/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial and industrial projects typically achieving payback in 3-5 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (1-2MWh) starting at $330,000 and large-scale systems (3-6MWh) from $600,000, with volume discounts available for enterprise orders.
