POWERING MYANMAR
THROUGH RENEWABLES
Solar Power is one of the most reliable Energy Resource to fulfill
Immediate/ Short/ Mid & Long Term requirement of the Country.
Practical application need to combine with well-designed System of -
- Hybrid Energy Sources
- Co-generation
- Energy Storage
- Energy Efficiency
- E. Conservation & Management
POWERING MYANMAR
THROUGH SOLAR POWERo Solar Thermal Technology
• Solar Cooking
• Solar Heating
• Solar Drying
• Solar Electrification
• Energy Storage
o Solar Photovoltaic Technology
• Solar Electrification [ Pico to Mega scale ]
• Solar Home System [Stand-alone at customized measure]
• Solar Roof-top
• Solar Pump
• Solar Street Light
• Solar Refrigeration System
• Solar Mini Grid [ Off Grid electrification ]
• Grid Connectivity [ Grid support power ]
Government Policy on REo Myanmar Energy Policy launched to public by “National Energy Management
• Committee” on 6th Jan. 2015 with 9 salient points as Governmental guideline
• including to promote Renewable Energy in No. (5) point.
o Now, new Government is reviewing the National Energy Policy to improve
• aligned with the current situation and it has not been launched yet.
o Preparation of RE Policy and Rural Electrification Law
o There is National level “RE Work Group” centered at the Department of
• Research & Innovation (Ministry of Education)
o Law for Energy Efficiency & Conservation is preparing under Ministry of Industry
o On Grid and Off Grid Electrification are executing by Ministry of Electricity &
Energy and Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock & Irrigation respectively
Commercial development of SPV application in
Myanmar is depend on
Policy Parity and Supporting Regulations
of the Government
SPV modules are Selling, buying
and using in whole country since
more than 2 decades ago
SPV System application
practices in Myanmaro COUNTRY WIDE MARKET: SPV application in Myanmar is large in number (no
systematic statistic data) and exist as nationwide application even at the
most remote areas.
o PEOPLE DEVELOPMENT MOMENTUM: It is a kind of Pro-Poor Private Public
Partnership ( 5P ) achievement to get minimum requirement of the Electric
Energy to fulfill their essential Basic Need of night light and power for their
edutainment ( radio, music-players, hand-phones, TV etc.).
o PUBLIC/PRIVATE ROLE: That 5P achievement is significant development step
of the country while 3P (PPP) practice popular only on the floor of Big
Projects of Gov. and Big Co.
o GLOBAL ENERGY TRANSITION IMPACT: SPV module cost was going down
dramatically and LED light innovation reach to market.
o ENERGY EFFICIENCY: Already applied by the people of Myanmar since half
decade ago along with the trend of Commercial sense
Now Private RE Entrepreneurs are
attempting to develop SPV Business.
( it is commencing phase of RE Commercialization in Myanmar )
Solar Home System [SHS]
o There is huge market of SHS, not only for Ruralapplication but also for Stand-alone ElectricitySupply System for Off Grid areas where variousmeasure of Household applications are situated.
o There are many different kinds of remote SPVapplication for Cottage Industries and SME powerrequirements.
o That huge market potential can be boosted undergood policy guidance and thorough regulations
GOOD MATERIALS OF SPV SYSTEM COMPONENTS TOGETHER WITH
GUARANTEED SERVICES WILL PROMOTE
SPV BUSSINESS
STANDARDS & SPECIFICATIONS CONTROL IS ESSENTIALLY REQUIRED
SPV Pumping System established
since 1989
Candle substitute Solar Lighting system
Application in poor villages
Various SPV applications
since 1995
SHS>SSME>SRT>SMG>GCS
o SHS is widely utilizing in Myanmar. But it still need to develop up to customized package of turn-key sale to meet demand. Government and WB has off-grid program only with fixed packages those cannot fulfill the actual demand
o SSME: Standalone SME powered by SPV electrification system for various Cottage Industries and SME sector requirement have big demand to fulfill
o SRT: SPV Roof Top System is very practical application to get immediate benefit for the people
o SMG: Solar Mini Grid System (<1 MW) is now in trial phase only at the Program of Government Pre-Electrification Plan at the Off Grid areas with few demonstration projects those are designed with subsidized fund and not easy to propagate by PPP sector.
o GCS: There are some SPV Power Farm establishment of 30 to 300 MW (Grid Connected Solar). Implementation procedure and process are not in standard at the moment and also Government Regulatory clearance to encourage such private attempt is desperately need at the moment
SPV: BEAUTIFUL TECHNOLOGY
• NEVER EXHOUSTED FUEL RESOUCE (DAILY AVAILABLE LIGHT ENERGY)
• SIMPLE DEVICE (SOLAR CELL / MODULE / PANNEL / ARRAY)
• SIMPLE INSTALLATION
• HIGHLY DURABLE
• NO MOVING PARTS
• FIT TO ANY REQUIREMENT [ MODULAR & TAILOR-MAKE ]
• FIT TO ANY MEASURE [ MILI-AMP. TO MEGA POWER SCALE ]
• NO SOUND
• NO SMELL
• CAN MOBILE TO INSTALL ON VEHICLES ( detachable, extendable )
• NO FUEL COST (SUN LIGHT)
• LOW MAINTENANCE & OPERATION COST
• EASY TO HANDLE AND MANAGE
• SHORT TIME FOR SYSTEM ESTABLISHMENT
• LOW COST FOR SYSTEM ESTABLISHMENT
• EASY FOR HYBRID SYSTEM CONFIGURATION TO GET STABLE ENERGY
• EASY TO COMBINE WITH ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM TO GET STABLE ENERGY
• EASY FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY SYSTEM (DC OREGINATED)
• EASY COMMISSIONING AND DECOMMISSIONING
• SIMPLE & EASY IEE, EIA, SIA, HIA, EMP & SEA
• NO SERIOUS POLUTION PROBLEM
• MOST ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY PRACTICE
• CAN AVOID INTERMITTENCE GENERATION BY GOOD TECHNOLOGIES & MANAGEMENT
DECENTRALIZED & DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM OF ELECTRIFICATION AT
OFFGRID AREAS OF MYANMAR FOR 100% TARGET OF NEP
