Abstract

Abstract : Thailand has stepped up its efforts to increase the share of renewable energy to its energy mix since the 2002 public administration reform. Recently, Thailand has adopted its integrated energy blueprint. In addition, Thailand has voluntarily submitted its intended nationally determined contribution at the UNFCCC Conference of Parties in Paris. These developments, as well as the steps and challenges Thailand must face to achieve its ambitious targets and commitments are discussed.
