Annex 1: Potential of Renewable Energy Resources Types of renewable energy Potential Status in 2009 Hydropower Potential for the development of hydropower, excluding potential sites along Mekong River, is 26,500 MW. There has not been detailed feasibility studies or surveys on small hydropower under 5 MW The current total capacity of small hydropower is 11.5 MW with 22.5 MW more under construction, contracted with EdL. Furthermore, over 100 MW are under feasibility studies by the private sector. At present, ADB is funding a feasibility study of the hydropower potential under 5 MW Solar power Lao PDR has 300 days of sun light per year. The potential capacity of solar energy is 4.5-5 2 KWh/m /day. Laos has the good locations for solar power, particularly in the southern parts Solar power plays a large role in rural electrification. 25,000 households have been supplied with solar home systems. There are private companies and individuals who have been operating solar supply and installation business. 1% of total installations are used for business purposes Biomass Lao PDR is an agricultural based country. There are a lots of wastes generated every year from agro-forestry production, such as rice straws/husk, sawdust, corn cobs, livestock manures, which can be used as feedstock for energy generation. Besides, communal and organic industrial wastes are among the important biomass energy resources. Annual Energy Potential of Agro- forestry wastes is estimated around 500 MTOE. There is also high potential of energy crops in Lao PDR, such as oily crops (jatropha, Vernicia Montana nut, oil palm, soybean, etc), starch culture (cassava, corn,) sugar (sugarcane) and other trees, which can be used as feedstock for biofuels production. Furthermore, variety of quick growing trees or aquatic cultures can also play an important role in rural energy production and processing industry. Surveyed data show that around 90% of Lao population still relay on biomass energy for cooking, and small rural industrial needs (such as masonry production, tobacco processing, alcohol production and so on). There was attempt to pilot small scale gasification power production. In recent years, there have been conducted pilot projects on jatropha plantation for biodiesel production. Kolao farm has invested on Jatropha plantation on 2500 ha and pressing factory with capacity 40 ton per day, and biodiesel processing factory - capacity 2000 L/day in Kenthao district, Xayabouly province. Besides, a teak wood company in Luang Prabang has piloted plantation of Vernicia Montana nut on area of 7000 ha. SNV together with Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry has successfully piloted small project on promotion of family size biogas digesters. The government supports follow up projects. Obviously to say, there is still lack of data on biomass resources in Lao PDR. Wind power In general, there lack of data on wind potential in Lao PDR, especially on height above 10 m. Based on international data sources, it was estimated that there are high wind potential in central provinces, particularly at high mountainous areas along the Lao-Vietnam border of provices Khammouane and Savannakhet. At a height more than 50 m, average wind speed reaches 5.8 m/s, which appropriate for power generation. MEM recently has installed wind data lodger in central Savannakhet province. Geothermal energy In general, Lao PDR has relatively low potential of geothermal energy. Observed geothermal resources in some provinces are low temperature one, not more than 70oC. Currently, hot spring sites have used as the tourist destinations. 32
