Myanmar Electricity Supply and Demand 2012 to 2018

Projected Demand and Domestic Supply of Electricity in Mynamar, Million kWhMyanmar’s Ministry of Electric Power for electricity show demand doubling from 12,459 million kWh in 2012-13 to 25,683 million kWh in 2018-19, a compound growth rate of 13% a year. However, actual production in 2012 appears to be only 10,000 million kWh, and it is unlikely that moving to 2012-13 will raise the total beyond 10,500 million kWh.

So, the likely electricity output in 2012-13 available for domestic use will be 3659 kWh below this year’s demand estimate. Production for domestic use would have to jump by 42% to equal the expected demand. This is a massive shortfall and demand grows by over 1500 million kWh in 2013-14.
