MORE GAS NEEDED FOR 24/7 POWER IN YANGON

Kyaw Thu and Zaw Htet, Myanmar Times, 02/07/07. http://mmtimes.com/no373/n007.htm


An official of the YESB said last week that households and industrial zones in the city will only start getting 24-hour electricity when natural gas supplies increase and water levels at hydropower dams rise. The official, speaking on June 27 during a press conference at board headquarters in Ahlone township, said the city needs to receive at least 19,000 MWh of power a day to enjoy 24-hour electricity but is now getting less than 17,000 MWh. He said that last July, when Yangon was getting around-the-clock electricity, the city was receiving 11,284 MWh from hydropower and 8,013 MWh from gas turbines, for a total of 19,297 MWh a day.
But this year, as of June 25, Yangon was only getting 10,195 MWh from hydropower and 6,326 MWh from gas turbines, or a total of 16,521 MWh a day. “The shortage of natural gas supplies to Yangon’s four gas turbine power plants is the main reason for the decrease in electricity production,” the official said. He said gas supplies to the four power stations had dropped from 108 million cubic feet of gas a day (cf/d) last July to 59,466 million cf/d this month. “We need 130 million cf/d to supply regular electricity to the whole country,” he said. “The amount we get is quite low compared with demand.”
Yangon’s gas supplies come from offshore and onshore gas fields in Myanmar. Some have speculated that the Ministry of Energy, which is responsible for supplying natural gas to Yangon’s four power stations, has shifted natural gas supplies to fulfil the needs of the growing number of compressed natural gas (CNG) stations in the country. However, an energy expert said last week that the 27 CNG stations in Yangon use only about 12 million cf/d, a mere fraction of the 240 million cf/d [of natural gas] used throughout Myanmar.
Of this total, 130 millio cf/d come from onshore gas fields and 110 million cf/d from the offshore Yadana gas project in the Gulf of Mottama. Most of the natural gas goes to power stations, cement factories and fertiliser factories. The natural gas used to supply the CNG stations comes from Myanmar’s biggest onshore gas field – Nyaungdon, located about 55 km west of Yangon – which produces 80 million cf/d.
The state-run daily newspaper The Mirror announced on May 2 that a new onshore gas deposit found in Ma-ubin in Ayeyarwady Division was producing 3.2 million cf/d. The report said the Ministry of Energy was planning to use the gas to supply CNG filling stations, gas turbines and factories. The YESB said officials were now negotiating to boost gas supplies to Yangon’s gas turbines.
Another reason for the shortage of electricity supplies this year has been an increase in the number of commercial electricity meters from 589,599 in 2006 to 692,044 this year, according to figures from the board. The addition of more than 100,000 commercial meters comes in anticipation of increased electricity supplies following the completion of several major hydropower projects in the near future. Meanwhile, the same official said the board started installing household power meters earlier this month in Yangon households that also run cottage industries. The price of the meters in K400,000 for 10 kilowatts hours (KWh), K600,000 for 20 KW hand K800,000 of 30 KWh.
Compiler’s note: Complaints about periodic shortages of electric power in Yangon are commonplace in media reports, but little attention has been paid to the question of how more efficient use of natural gas could serve as a partial remedy for the situation. The introduction of co-generation plants and combined cycle operation of the existing network of electric power plants in the city in the late 90s marked an important step in this process. In an interview with the Myanmar Times in 2002 U Soe Myint, director-general of the national Energy Planning Dept, stated that the city’s power plants were using approximately 300,000 cf of natural gas for each megawatt of power generated. (“Normally, 3 million cu ft of gas can generate 10 MW.” (Myanmar Times: Vol 6, No 129, 17/06/02; not available on-line); However much more efficient ratios are widely reported. For example, AECI’s Chouteau Power Plant in north-eastern Oklahoma reports that its combined-cycle operation with a capacity to provide 522 MW uses roughly 86 million cubic feet of natural gas per day, i.e. 165,000 cf of gas per MW generated. http://www.aeci.org/FacilitiesCH.aspx. Even better efficiencies are promised through the development of fuel cell technology that uses natural gas to generate electricity through electrochemical reactions as opposed to the combustion of fossil fuels.

MYANMAR ELECTRIC POWER ENTERPRISE: FUNCTIONS AND OBJECTIVES

Country Report on Infrastructure Development with a Focus on Public Private Partnerships (PPP) (ESCAP: July 2007, pp 23 – 27. http://www.unescap.org/ttdw/ppp/reports/Myanmar_6july2007.pdf
Myanma Electric Power Enterprise (MEPE) under EPM No 2 is responsible for the construction of transmission lines and substations and the operation and maintenance of gas turbine power stations and combined cycle power plants. MEPE has laid down the following objectives [and priorities]:

(a) Electricity from hydropower station to be utilized as base load and that from gas turbines as peak load.

(b) In order to optimize the use of natural gas by the gas turbines, combined cycle power plants are to be implemented.

(c) To expand the national grid system and to eliminate the need for electrification of towns and village by diesel generating sets.

(d) To revive the study of alternative production of electricity using saw dust from saw mills and paddy husks from rice mills. (The use of electricity by firing boilers with such waste to generate its own electricity requirement instead of utilizing power from the grid is much appreciated and encouraged.

(e) To reduce the loss of electricity incurred in transmission and distribution.

(f) In remote areas, where electricity from the national grid cannot be utilized; the generation and distribution of electricity will have to be provided by diesel generating sets and wind and solar facilities.
MEPE distributes electricity contributed by major hydropower and gas turbine stations to five states and six divisions through the national grid system which supplies 94pc of the power requirement in the country. Due to the rapid expansion of towns and villages and the construction of many multi-storied residential buildings and the introduction of industrial zones, the peak load in the country grew from only 332 MW in 1988 to 996 MW in 2006/2007.
MEPE has been fulfilling about 45pc of daily power requirements from gas turbines. Daily average electricity consumption is 16.61 million units of which 8.2 million units was produced from hydropower and 6.57 million units from gas turbine, 0.09 millionunits from diesel and 1.73 million units from steam. Whereas electricity generation in 1988/89 was 2,226 million kWh, by 2005/2006 it had increased to 6,064.16 million kWh.
The national grid system of transmission lines covers eleven of the fourteen states and divisions in the country. Since 1988 it has been extended from 1717 miles to 3,260 miles of 230-kV, 132-kV and 66-kV up to December 2006. The total number of primary substations in Myanmar is 84, of which five are of 230 kV, 22 are of 132 kV and 47 are of 66 kV voltage ratings.
The following are on-going power transmission expansion projects for implementation in the near future:-

(1) Shweli-Mansan-Shwesaryan 230-kV double circuit transmission line (180 miles) and primary substations.

(2) Hlaingthaya-Athoke 230-kV transmission line (73 miles) and primary substation.

(3) Thaketa-Thanlyin 230-kV double circuit transmission lines (12 miles) and primary substation.

(4) 230-kV double circuit transmission lines connected to new Yeywa power station (total 183 miles) and primary substations.

(5) Taungoo-Tharyargon-Bago-Thanlyin 230-kV transmission line (177 miles) and primary substations.

(6) Bago-Myaungtagar 230-kV transmission lines (50 miles) and primary substations.

(7) Belin-Monywa 230-kV double circuit transmission line (110 miles) and primary substation.

(8) Meikhtilar-Taungtwingyi 230 KV transmission line (105 miles) and primary substation.

(9) Thazi-Myingyan 132 KV transmission lines (65 miles) and primary substations.

(10) Kyaingtaung [Kengtawng]-Namzang 132-kV transmission lines (73 miles) and primary substation.

(11) Namzang-Thebaw [Pinpet?] 66-kV transmission line (23 miles) and primary substation.

(12) Namzang-Lashore [Langkho?] 66-kV transmission line (26 miles) and primary substation.

(13) Namzang-Loilem 66 kV transmission line (14 miles) and primary substation.

(14) Myingyan-Ngathayauk 66 KV transmission line (22.79 miles) and primary substation.
About 6pc of the power supply is generated in areas outside the national grid by isolated generating sets. According to the Border Areas Development programme, 199 towns and villages outside the national grid System were being served by 265 diesel generating sets with an installed total capacity of 8.8 MW.

RICE-HUSK GENERATORS SLATED FOR VILLAGES IN YANGON DIVISION

Kyaw Thu, Myanmar Times, 11/06/07. http://mmtimes.com/no370/n005.htm


Yangon division PDC in collaboration with the EPM No 2 has started a project to provide electricity to remote villages in the division using power plants fuelled by rice husks, an official from the ministry said on June 7. The official said the project will benefit villages and towns in locations where rivers and creeks have made it difficult to build towers for power lines, and are therefore beyond the current reach of the national power grid. “Setting up rice-husk power plants to supply electricity will help bring social and economic development to these villages and towns,” the official said.
The ministry official said the YDPDC has been working to get villages to contribute to the project by purchasing the power plants from the Myanmar Inventor Co-operative Society. “The ministry will help provide equipment and local power lines where they are needed,” he said. The power plants convert rice husks, which would otherwise be burnt in the open air or left to decay, to a source of biofuel that is used to power generators that produce electricity. Benefits include reducing reliance on oil and natural gas by using a renewable resource as a source of fuel.
The Myanmar Inventor Co-op has already set up a 15-kW plant in Kayan township, about 50 km (30 mi) from Yangon city. U Soe Tint Aung, the president of the society, said the K4.5-million plant will supply electricity to households throughout the town. “The project will expand to other towns and villages in Yangon division. We already have orders for two more rice-husk power plants in Thongwa township near Kayan, each with a capacity of 160 kW,” he said. There are 51 townships in Yangon Division, 30 of which make up the Yangon metropolitan area. The remaining 21 include areas that are not served by the national power grid.

EGAT AGREED ONLY TO STUDY FEASIBILITY OF SALWEEN PROJECT

Krabi Agencies, Bangkok Post, 10/06/07. http://www.bangkokpost.net/breaking_news/breakingnews.php?id=119346


Thailand has no plans to buy electricity from the controversial [Tasang] hydropower dam on the Salween River in Burma, and the present government is not looking for cheap energy supply from that country, Energy Minister Piyasvasti Amranand said on Sunday. The Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) had never signed a contract with Burma to purchase electricity but had merely inked an MoU to conduct a feasibility study of the project. "If someone is clearing a road, that's their business. Our government's policy is different from the previous government, different from five years ago," he told Bangkok-based foreign correspondents during a talk on "Renewable Energy Policy in Thailand" in the southern resort island here last night.
Piyasvasti said the present government, which came to power after the Sept 19 coup that ousted former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, was looking to Laos, another neighbour, to meet its power supply needs, with the possibility of buying 5,000 MW. "We intend to buy more power from Laos and we are encouraging Thai investors to invest there. Anything beyond 2015, we will look at China, but it all depends on the next government," he said.
The Thaksin government's friendly business relations with the military junta in Burma was criticised by international human rights groups, particularly its plan to buy hydro power from Burma. Burma's state-run New Light of Myanmar newspaper reported that Thailand's MDX Group had invested about US$6 billion in the Tasang project in eastern Shan state, the biggest of four planned dams on the Salween River, the longest undammed waterway in the region. Construction of the 868m-long and 227m-high dam, located about 75 km from the Thai border in Shan state, started on March 30. Once completed, generators installed at the power station would have a total capacity of 7,110 MW. The project is expected to generate 35,446 million kWh yearly. Human rights groups have claimed the project would displace more than 80,000 hill tribe people from their homeland in the Shan, Karenni and Karen states in Burma as well as from the Mae Hong Son province in Thailand.
