Many are also concerned that 90 percent of the electricity will be exported to China, but Mr Wang was keen to correct this. “Myanmar will get 10pc for free, which is more than 10 billion KwH per year [from the total seven proposed Ayeyarwady hydropower projects], and then it will be able to draw down as much as it needs at a negotiated price. The remaining power will be sold to anyone who wants to buy it, whether it’s China or other countries. We must be clear that the electricity will first be used to meet nationwide domestic demand and that the first 10pc will be free,” he said.

China does not need additional power from Myanmar, he added, and this year there is a 7000-megawatt (MW) surplus in Yunnan province alone. However, civil society groups including the Renewable Energy Association of Myanmar have pointed out that most of Myanmar’s population lives off-grid and therefore will not benefit from the dam.

“We could offer assistance in this. China is ready to help – many parties are ready to help, but Chinese companies are the most suitable in terms of price, quality and delivery,” said Mr Wang. He added that as the grid is expanded in Myanmar, more people could benefit from power generated by a dam at Myitsone.

“The Myitsone dam project should be restarted,” said Dan Steinbock, a global economic and policy analyst and partner of consulting firm Difference Group. He stressed that energy projects are vital not just for China, but for Myanmar’s economy and the government.

Years of economic sanctions have crippled Myanmar’s economy, and the new government is facing formidable economic challenges. Statistics from the World Bank show that 84 percent of households in rural Myanmar now live in the dark, creating hardship, perpetuating poverty and stalling development. “Given Myanmar’s lack of coal or advanced alternative energy technology, its abundant water resources are undoubtedly nature’s gift and a more economic and feasible choice for clean power generation,” Bi said.

According to ACHC, the Myitsone Dam is the largest of the seven hydropower stations to be built under the Sino-Myanmar Framework Agreement on Joint Development of Hydropower Resources in Myanmar signed in March 2003. The seven dams will have a total installed capacity of up to 20,000 megawatts. Based on the agreement, about 60.7 percent of the return on investment will go to Myanmar, including free supply of 10 percent of electricity produced and 15 percent of the joint venture’s free equities and tax revenue.

Jiang told the Global Times that the Myitsone Dam, once completed, will generate nearly 30 billion kilowatt hours of electricity every year, three times more than Myanmar generates annually now, which will be of great help to solve the power shortage, improve infrastructure and boost employment as well as national economic development.

ADB study Myanmar’s energy sector

http://www.mmtimes.com/index.php/business/3466-adb-study-puts-spotlights-myanmar-s-energy-sector.html
By Justin Heifetz | Monday, 03 December 2012
Myanmar has significant potential energy resources but lacks the capital and regulatory framework needed to develop them, an initial assessment by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) shows.
ADB’s Energy Sector Initial Assessment, released on November 27, suggests that Myanmar can benefit from oil and gas exploration, as well as harnessing the energy of geothermal and other renewable energy sources.
The assessment shows that the country’s largest potential energy resources are hydropower and natural gas.
“Natural gas is Myanmar’s most important source of export earnings and the oil and gas subsector accounts for a third of total foreign direct investment in Myanmar,” the assessment says.
“According to the Myanmar Investment Commission, as of September 2011, a total of 60 investment projects had been approved for the oil and gas subsector, totaling US$13.2 billion,” the assessment says.
However, the ADB says that energy development in Myanmar has been limited by a number of factors, including insufficient capital.
“Myanmar’s energy sector has suffered from decades of underinvestment, and only one in four people currently have electricity access,” said Anthony Jude, director of the energy division in ADB’s Southeast Asia Department.
“As Myanmar continues to open up there is a remarkable opportunity to utilise domestic energy resources to power the country’s development, but it’s essential that strong, enforceable environmental and social safeguards be firmly in place.”
The ADB assessment also cites a lack of qualified personnel, poor legal and regulatory frameworks and a lack of coordination planning among Myanmar’s seven energy-related government ministries as an impediment to developing the country’s energy sector.
The assessment says that Myanmar’s energy sector could benefit from international investment in medium- and long-term planning; rehabilitation works in power generation, transmission, and distribution; and building gas-fuelled power plants in Yangon.
The assessment further says the construction of a 500KV transmission line from upper Myanmar to Yangon; an integrated, comprehensive plan for hydropower development; and the rehabilitation and upgrading of coal- and gas-fired generation plants, refineries, and natural gas pipelines.
“Clearly, strengthening Myanmar’s energy sector is critical to reducing poverty and enhancing the medium- and long-term development prospects of the country.
“Electrification is an urgent requirement, without which whole areas of the country will be severely hampered in their efforts to advance economically. Social progress also depends on electrification, without which health, education, and other essential services inevitably suffer,” the assessment says.
Myanmar’s per capita electricity consumption is among the lowest in Asia. Electrification rates range from 67 percent in Yangon to as little as 16pc in rural areas.

Government currently subsidising electricity bill
By Chan Mya Htwe | Tuesday, 14 March 2017
http://www.mmtimes.com/index.php/business/25318-government-currently-subsidising-electricity-bill.html

In 2012, the average export rates per electric unit in Southeast Asian countries can cost up to more than K267 per electric unit: K67 in Brunei, K71 in Myanmar, K117 in Thailand, more than K105 in Laos, more than K119 in Vietnam, approximately K166 in Malaysia, K230 in Cambodia, and approximately K267 in Singapore. Myanmar has the second lowest electricity export rate in Southeast Asia.
Electricity sales currently cover maintenance and operation costs of hydroelectric power plants, excluding the costs of investment. This is based on a decision made by the government to cut huge losses.
“Government-owned hydroelectric stations are now selling electricity at K18 per unit. We are in trouble because of this. There will not be any profit … and we cannot reinvest. There will be no new hydroelectric power stations for the next five years,” said U Maw Thar Htwe, former deputy minister for electric power.
During the electrical power development forum held on March 3, delegates shared their input on the issues related to the government’s financial loss in funding electricity supply.
The average cost for generating one electric unit is K77.25. With distribution costs, the price will amount to K92 per unit. Thus, the government is losing roughly K23 per unit, according to Dr Tun Naing, deputy minister of the Ministry of Electricity and Energy.
“The price of electricity should be increased, but working class people should not be affected … The government is footing K24. We need to increase the bill so that the government only needs to foot about K20. It is important to change the price of electricity.
“If the government does not change the [electricity] price now, it will be impossible to change in the next two or three years,” said U Kyaw Kyaw Hlaing, chair and CEO of Smart Technical Services.
Consumers living in remote areas outside of the grid system need to pay higher rates for electricity and tariffs, because their financial contributions actually subsidise electric bills for those located within the grid system. The electrical power distribution system favoured by the public can only be implemented if the government can cut losses by increasing revenue, Dr Tun Naing said.

“As the government is using the union budget, there are no funds for the sector’s development. It will hamper the development of the electricity sector. Citizens would need to step up and pay their dues,” he added. However, 35pc of the population with access to electricity have no interest in saving energy due to low electricity bill rates, while the other 65pc of the population are still waiting for access to power.
