To achieve its targets, Myanmar needs to attract significant investment in renewable energy from 2020 onwards. For this, it needs to improve its governance capacity, the regulatory environment and the prioritisation of renewable energy.
Myanmar has abundant renewable energy resources, such as hydropower and solar power (Vakulchuk et al., 2017). Hydropower accounts for more than half of the power generation in Myanmar, with high utilization among the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries.
Three resources were primarily referred for relevant data. If data were not available because of limited use of particular energy sources in Myanmar, we used the data of other ASEAN members states instead.

Myanmar has one of the lowest electrification rates in the world, and most of its inhabitants, who lack access to electricity, live off-grid in rural areas. Despite Myanmar having abundant sun and wind energy resources, which could potentially generate electricity for rural communities, renewable energy growth in Myanmar is stunted. In this article, we examine the
(b) Department of Research and Innovation, Yangon, Myanmar Myanmar has abundant of renewable energy resources through the country. Among the renewable energy available, the potential of solar energy is one of the great interests in Myanmar. The government of Myanmar has set a plan to electrify the whole county in 2030.
The RES Group (Renewable Energy Systems) is the world''s largest independent renewable energy company, having been in the sector for more than 40 years. As of 2023, the company had established more than 23 gigawatts of renewable energy projects worldwide and supported more than 12 gigawatts operations.Employing more than 2500 people in 14 countries, it operates
Distributed renewable energy is gaining more ground in meeting electricity demand, but supply chains and access to finance are impediments to further scale up. The energy shortage is affecting all walks of life across the country. Power outages in Yangon have caused long queues at the compressed natural gas (NG) filling stations.
Among the renewable energy available, the potential of solar energy is one of the great interests in Myanmar. The government of Myanmar has set a plan to electrify the whole county in 2030. On the other hand, ASEAN has a target that is to increase 23% of Renewable Energy in ASEAN generation mix by 2025.
the available energy sources in Myanmar are crude oil, natural gas, hydropower, biomass, and coal. Wind energy, solar, geothermal, bioethanol, biodiesel, and biogas are other potential energy sources. In 2017, Myanmar''s proven energy reserves comprised 105 million barrels of oil, 5.56
Despite Myanmar having abundant sun and wind energy resources, which could potentially generate electricity for rural communities, renewable energy growth in Myanmar is stunted. In this article, we examine the case study of renewable energy development in Myanmar to better understand the factors that influence renewable energy development and

Renewable energy-based hybrid systems are suitable for electrifying rural and coastal areas, meeting longer load durations, and being more efficient and cost-effective than single-source power systems [5, 6]. Introducing a decentralized hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) is one way to lessen reliance on centralized power generation.
Despite Myanmar having abundant sun and wind energy resources, which could potentially generate electricity for rural communities, renewable energy growth in Myanmar is stunted. In this article, we examine the case study of renewable energy development in Myanmar to better understand the factors that influence renewable energy development and
