The National Electrification Plan (NEP) set a goal of 100% electricity access by 2030, heavily depending on renewable energy. The Myanmar Energy Master Plan from 2015 proposed a mix dominated by hydropower (57%) and coal (30%), with only 5% from wind and solar. Later targets aimed for 8% wind and solar by 2021, and 12% by 2025.
Myanmar’s plans to expand its renewable energy sector, focusing on solar and hydropower to boost energy security and support rural development, are being hindered by severe challenges. Since the 2021 military coup, the country has faced an ongoing energy crisis, including electricity shortages, frequent blackouts, and a decline in power generation.
Overall, Myanmar's energy sector faces challenges due to political instability, security risks, and environmental concerns, making its ambitious renewable goals difficult to achieve. Myanmar's National Electrification Plan (NEP) aimed to provide universal electricity access by 2030, with a strong focus on off-grid solutions for remote rural areas.
GWh = gigawatt-hour, RE = renewable energy. Source: MOEE (2018). Since 2013, Myanmar has exported electricity to neighbouring countries such as Thailand and China. The exported electricity all comes from hydroelectric plants. Table 1.24. Electricity Export Source: MOEE (2018). MOEE data covers electricity sales to final users in Myanmar.
