Luang Prabang dam and hydropower pursuits along the Mekong: Should banks finance them as ‘clean energy’ projects?
Studio EB
A closer look at how these ‘energy transition’ deals are backed reveals gaps in the lending policies of banks in the Mekong subregion. A 1,460-MW dam, now under construction near the Luang Prabang UNESCO World Heritage Site, will see all its electricity sold to Thailand, but critics have pointed out that the nation is facing an oversupply of energy.
Some startups have had to trade clean energy on a smaller scale “behind-the-meter” without the support of government policies. A key barrier is Thailand's centralised energy system which is in need of a reform, say experts.
