Summary Report of the Project to Study the Impact of Electric Vehicle Development and Energy Conservation in the Transport Sector in Thailand on Biofuel Development
(Project implemented in B.E. 2562) Thailand has continuously increasing oil demand, accompanied by continuously rising oil prices. The use of fossil oil may impact the environment and pose a risk to the budget for crude oil imports, as Thailand relies on crude oil imports for more than 50% in 2558. Due to these circumstances, the government has focused on alternative energy produced from agricultural crops and other energy sources to replace fossil fuels. Thailand's policy promotes the use of biofuels and their widespread distribution, such as gasohol E10, E20, E85, and biodiesel B7. Although the use of gasohol and biodiesel helps reduce the use of petroleum-based fuels, the proportion in terms of quantity remains small. According to the Cabinet Resolution dated 28 March 2560, which approved measures to support the production of electric vehicles in Thailand and assigned relevant agencies to expedite the issuance of measures to support the production of electric vehicles in Thailand to become tangible, alternative energy, such as electric vehicles, now plays a significant role in helping reduce pollution and oil imports. Electric vehicle technology can operate in conjunction with oil at a 10% ethanol ratio in gasoline engines, along with the government policy promoting the use of electric vehicles and the increase of charging stations within the country. Additionally, there is continuous development of other alternative vehicles, such as fuel cell vehicles and hydrogen vehicles, among others, all to reduce the use of fossil fuels, which emit high levels of pollution, and to reduce the use of domestic resources.
