• Biogas utilization since 1980 and in 1983 (867 floating type
biogas plant, family size digesters, 134 townships, floating
type biogas plant ). Biogas is mainly used for cooking and
lighting
• Requirement of the intensive maintenance, and short lifetime of the floating drum
• For the plan period 2001-2005, YTU under the MOST, the
dissemination of biogas technology for rural development
• About 100 Nos. of cow in a village, approximately 50m3 of
biogas can be provided by 50m3 in size, fixed dome type
biogas plant.
• Since 2002, community size biogas digesters for village
electrification have been constructed and utilized in Central
region - Mandalay, Sagaing, Magway Region and Northern Shan
State.
• These digesters are 25, 50, 100 cubic meter in size, Fixed Dome
Type electricity producing biogas plants with installed capacity of
5-15 KW, serving 177 villages with 4 hours per day of electricity.

• All houses, monasteries and streets (two hours in the early
mornings and four hours in the evenings).
• In 2009, 26 Nos of 6-12 cubic meter size of family-sized, fixed
dome type biogas digester has been developed by biogas
project group and utilized in integrated farming system.
• 50m3 in size, MMO model Fixed Dome Type Biogas Plant is
about 60,00,000 Kyats including the cost of 25HP, 15 KVA
engine
• Supposed to be 300 houses in a village, each household will
have to pay 600 Kyats/month for one fluorescence tube,
1,50,000 Kyats can be collected in all and the investment of
biogas plant will be covered with in three or four years.
Stimulating Agricultural Production
• Animal excreta, crop stalks, vegetable waste and leaves
become thoroughly decomposed after fermentation when
sealed airtight in these biogas pits.
• Their nitrogen content is transformed into ammonia, which is
easier for plants to absorb, and therefore improve the
fertilizer.
Rice – Husk Gasifier
Gasification
Biomass
Gasifier
Producer
Gas
• Rice is the main farm product and is mass-produced (22
million tons of rice are produced annually)
• A large sum of rice husks are excreted in rice mills (produced
all year round due to continuous operation)
• Some rice mills use rice husks as fuel to generate steam for
steam engines
• Rice mills using motors or diesel engines ( so produce surplus
rice husks)
Biofuels
• To produce biodiesel at the community level by using small
scale biodiesel plants
• Driving single cylinder agriculture machines and water pumps
are presented
• The Government’s Guidance for The Development of The Biodiesel Production
• Increase Palm plantation in available land (existing production
is 5800 metric ton of crude palm from 166,204 acres = 67261
hectare).
• To promote Physic nut / Jatropha / Castrol Oil plantation and
achieve 8 million acres (3.24 million hectare) within (20052011) years.
• To encourage the private sector participation.

• No Project had been accomplished.
- Waste Heat Recovery Projects in Power Industry (Gas Turbines),
Cement Industry, Petroleum Industry etc….
- RE Power Generation – Biomass Gasifier accumulate for sizable
power output.
Biogas Plants
- Waste to Energy Projects - Industrial wastes
- Distilleries, Beverage Industry, Starch
and Chemical Industry etc.)
- MSW to Energy – Yangon, Mandalay and
State and Division Level Towns.
- Fossil Fuel Displacement Project – Steam generation by Biomass
Energy (Rice Husk, Wood Chips)
- Energy Efficiency and Consecration (EE&C) Projects.
- Teak and Energy Plantations, Mangrove Replanting.
Conclusion
• Myanmar possesses the full potential of RE development in
almost every sector. Main potential areas are Hydropower and
Biomass Energy.
• Myanmar has abundant renewable energy sources.
• Solar, Wind, Geothermal and Oceanic Energy potentialities can
also be exploited.
• Large-scale hydro electric power will surely continue to be
developed as a main power source
• Micro hydropower development will also continue for
electrifying small villages.
• Solar power, due to its high cost, but good potential for
community size projects.
• Wind power, it has a poor prospect since favorable sites for wind
power generation are very few, but can be used with solar
system in hybrid applications.
• Biogas production from municipal and agricultural waste and
to disseminate the Biogas Technology in order to implement
the low cost family size biogas plant for cooking and lighting in
rural area.
• More development works with appropriate technologies are
required in renewable energy application.
• The Electrification rate of Myanmar is currently around (26)%
and this ratio must be (60)% in the year 2020. Within (8)years
Myanmar must add (34)% more to the electricity generation.
The present national installed capacity is around (3494)MW.
So Myanmar needs total installed capacity of (8063)MW in
the year 2020. It needs to increase (4.25)% or (571)MW
annually. This is for the total electricity sector and RE may be
(20)% of this capacity. So RE sector must generate electricity
of (114)MW annually starting from 2012 to 2020 (Excluding
Large Hydropower Projects Public, Private or PPP).
