Conclusion

Thailand will have a Master Plan for Smart Grid Development by the

mid of this year 2013.y

The three main utilities (PEA, MEA, EGAT) have already been taken on

some Smart Grid initiatives some Smart Grid initiatives.

Expectedly quite a few Smart Grid pilot sites in Thailand, including

MHS province will be undertake in the next 5 yearsMHS province, will be undertake in the next 5 years.
