  1. “Thailand : Move on Biofuels ” Better for people Better for the world ASEAN-India Workshop on Cooperation in Renewable Energy 05 – 06 November, 2012 VigyanBhawan, New Delhi

  2. Thailand Energy Situation Total imported energy Crude oil imported accounted for ~10% of Thailand 2011 GDP Thailand GDP 10 Trillion baht 977 billion baht 1.25 Trillion baht Thailand imported about 46 - 48 billion liter of crude oil annually Source : Department of Energy Business

  3. Alternative Energy Development Plan (AEDP) AEDP (2012 -2021) Target -25% of RE in total energy consumption by 2021 Total electricity target 9,201 MW Total heat target 9,335 MW

  4. Thailand Ethanol Policies Ethanol usage ~ 1.43 ML/day * Target 9 ML/day Ethanol * : Data from department of energy business (August 2012) Feedstock 1. Molasses (Sugar derivative) Sugarcane plantation area = ~ 1.26 million hectares = ~ 12,750 sq.km = ~ 5.18% arable land in Thailand In 2011,1.5 MT out of 4 MT of molasses were used to make 390 M.Liter of ethanol. The rest was used to make beverage and food seasoning as well as export. 2. Cassava Cassava plantation area = ~ 1.18 million hectares = ~ 11,978 sq.km = ~ 4.87% arable land in Thailand In 2011,0.6 MT out of 23MT of cassava were used to make 108 M.Liter of ethanol. About 65% of cassava were exported and about 30% were for local consumption

  5. Ethanol Uses and Export Ethanol usage Source : department of energy business *Jan-Aug 2012 Ethanol export Thailand export ethanol to • Philippines • Singapore • South Korea • Japan *Jan-Sep 2012

  6. Thailand Cassava Production and Export World cassava production Thailand cassava export Thailand is 4Th biggest cassava producer Source: FAO (2011) Out of global cassava produced, only 9.1 % is traded internationally Thailand is NUMBER 1 cassava exporter • Ethanol usage started to pick up in 2008 • Apart from 2008 with drought and flood problems, Thailand continue to export relatively stable cassava products. • Price increases following the global market Source: Office of Agricultural economics

  7. Ethanol Feedstock Land Usage 54% Molasses produced 57% Cassava produced With expected increase in yield, without increase in planation area, Thailand will be able to meet feedstock demand and have some to spare. NO Pressure from biofuel production to plant more feedstock Expected molasses output in 2021 is 4.2MT and expected cassava output in 2021 is 35 MT Source - Ministry of Agricultural and cooperation

  8. Thailand Biodiesel Policies biodiesel usage ~ 1.95 ML/day * Target 5.97 ML/day Diesel * : Data from department of energy business (August 2012) Oil palm In Thailand, only certain are suitable for oil palm, such as area in the southern and eastern part of Thailand. Oil palm plantation area = ~ 0.65 million hectares = ~ 6,560 sq.km = ~ 2.72% arable land in Thailand In 2011 49% 22% Oil palm plantation in Thailand Source : Department of Internal Trade of Thailand, Ministry of Commerce

  9. Biodiesel Feedstock – Palm Oil Prediction CPO = 0.91MT/year (3.71 ML/day B100) 5% biodiesel (B5) (2.65 ML/day B100) (0.65 MT/year of CPO) By 2017, oil palm plantation will increase to 0.8 million hectares (3.35% of total arable land in Thailand) Source: Office of Agricultural economics Thailand will have more CPO leftover for advance biofuel production

  10. Biofuel Possible Feedstock Food vs. Fuel ? NOT A PROBLEM FOR THAILAND Research level Research level Research level

  11. Biofuel Research and Development R & D Biofuel to replace petroleum diesel • To develop 2ndand 3rd generation of Biodiesel • Jatropha • Algae • To use ethanol instead • Fatty acid ethyl ester (FAEE) • ED95 (Ethanol Diesel) • Diesohol • Advance process • Bio-Hydrogenated diesel (BHD) • Biomass to liquid (BTL) Biofuel to replace petroleum gasoline • To develop 2nd generation of ethanol • Cellulosic ethanol • Sweet Sorghum

  12. Thailand - “Food comes first” Domestic consumption and people well-being is Thailand’s First priority

  13. Biofuel Better for people Better for the world Thank you
