6 FAQs about [Myanmar photovoltaic power stations]
What are photovoltaics used for in Myanmar?
In rural areas of Myanmar, photovoltaics are used for charging batteries and pumping water. Approximately 70% of Myanmar's population of 50 million live in rural areas. Myanmar opened its first solar power plant in Minbu, Magway Division, in November 2018.
Where is Myanmar's first solar power plant located?
Myanmar's first solar power plant is located in Minbu, Magway Division. The plant produced 40 megawatts (MW) of electricity in its first phase of operations and will produce 170 MW once fully operational.
What is happening in Myanmar's power sector?
Myanmar’s power sector has been severely afected by the ongoing political turmoil. The power sector has been spiralling downward since 2021 with prolonged electricity blackouts throughout the country. Electricity generation has been declining, resulting in a widening power supply–demand gap.
What happened to power plants in Myanmar?
For these cases, transmission lines or substations connecting those power plants were damaged, gas pipelines to those plants were destroyed, or power plants themselves were temporarily occupied by the resistance force. Figure 13. Atacks on energy infrastructure (August 2021 – February 2023) Source: Myanmar Institute for Peace and Security.
Will increasing imports help ease the electricity supply shortages in Myanmar?
While increasing imports could help to ease the electricity supply shortages in Myanmar, it remains challenging under the current circumstances. Improving power sector financial viability and recovering customer confidence are critical for private sector capital mobilization to enhance the quality of electricity services.
