 Introduction

Thermal power plays a vital role in meeting the escalating energy

demands of Southeast Asia, comprising countries like Indonesia,
Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines. With rapid economic
growth and urbanization driving increased electricity consumption,
thermal power generation from fossil fuels like coal, natural gas, and oil
remains a primary source of energy in the region. Despite its
significance, the sector faces challenges related to environmental
sustainability and resilience to natural disasters. Efforts are underway to
adopt cleaner and more efficient technologies, alongside diversification
strategies incorporating renewable energy sources, to ensure a
sustainable and reliable energy future for Southeast Asia.
 Importance of Thermal Power:

Thermal power plants predominantly utilize fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas, and oil to
generate electricity. These plants play a crucial role in meeting the region's baseload
electricity demand due to their reliability and consistent power output. In many Southeast
Asian countries, thermal power remains the primary source of electricity, providing the
necessary energy infrastructure to support industrialization, urban development, and
improving living standards.

Challenges and Opportunities:

Despite its significance, thermal power generation in Southeast Asia faces several
challenges. One of the major concerns is environmental sustainability, as traditional
fossil fuel-based plants emit greenhouse gases and pollutants, contributing to air
and water pollution and climate change. Moreover, the region's susceptibility to
natural disasters like typhoons and flooding poses risks to thermal power
infrastructure.

However, Southeast Asia also presents opportunities for innovation and transition
within the thermal power sector. Countries in the region are increasingly exploring
cleaner and more efficient technologies, such as supercritical and ultra-supercritical
coal-fired power plants, as well as investing in renewable energy sources like solar,
wind, and hydroelectric power. Additionally, initiatives focusing on improving
energy efficiency and implementing stricter environmental regulations are
gaining momentum.

Future Outlook:

Looking ahead, the future of thermal power in Southeast Asia will likely be shaped
by a combination of factors, including economic development, technological
advancements, environmental concerns, and policy frameworks. While traditional
fossil fuel-based thermal power will continue to play a significant role in the
region's energy mix in the near term, there is a growing emphasis on transitioning
towards cleaner and more sustainable alternatives.

In conclusion, thermal power generation remains integral to meeting the growing

energy demand in Southeast Asia. However, the sector faces challenges related to
environmental sustainability and resilience to natural disasters. Efforts to mitigate
these challenges through technological innovation, policy interventions, and
diversification of the energy mix are crucial for ensuring a sustainable and reliable
energy future in the region.

Country Wise: - Contribution in Installed Power Capacity in South East
Asia till JUN’2023

As of June 2023, Indonesia has emerged as the leader in installed capacity within
Southeast Asia's thermal power sector, boasting the highest capacity among regional
counterparts. The total installed capacity reached 26,055 megawatts (MW), with this
significant contribution attributed to South East Asia's Thermal Power Plants. This
milestone underscores Indonesia's pivotal role in meeting the region's growing
energy demands, highlighting the country's reliance on thermal power generation to
support its industrial and economic development.
Capacity Wise: Thermal Power Plants In South East Asia As Of
JUNE’2023

As of June 2023, the Stesen Janakuasa Sultan Azlan Shah Power Station holds the
distinction of having the highest installed thermal power capacity among power stations in
the region, boasting an impressive 3,100 megawatts (MW). It is closely followed by the
Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Power Station, also with a capacity of 3,100 MW. The
Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Power Station, with a capacity of 2,244 MW, ranks third in
terms of installed thermal power capacity. Additionally, the Stesen Janakuasa Tuanku
Muhriz Power Station rounds out the list with a capacity of 1,000 MW. These power
stations collectively play a crucial role in meeting the energy needs of the region,
contributing significantly to its electricity supply infrastructure.
