Feed-in tariff for distributed solar systems
On 16 July 2013 the National Energy Policy Commission (NPS) of Thailand adopted new feed-in tariff scheme supporting rooftop and community ground-mounted solar installations.
The goal of the scheme is to support installation of 1 GW of new, small-scale solar systems in Thailand by 2014.
Feed-in tariff for rooftop solar installations to be operational by December 2013:
Renewable source | Power plant capacity | Period of time | Feed-in tariff rate in BHT/kWh | Cap |
Rooftop solar | 0 – 10 kW | 25 years | 6.96 | 200 MW |
10 – 250 kW | 6.55 | |||
250 kW – 1MW | 6.16 |
Feed-in tariff for community ground-mounted solar reduced twice over period of 25 years and to be operational by December 2014:
Renewable source | Granted for total of years: | Year of plant operation | Feed-in tariff rate in BHT/kWh | Cap |
Community ground-mounted solar | 25 years | 1-3 | 9.75 | 800 MW |
4-10 | 6.5 | |||
