Gas to gain share amid hydro and coal project delays
Myanmar ' s power mix will remain dominated by hydropower generation over the coming decade, but the gradual realisation of the significant gas project pipeline will see the share of gas rise in the power mix. While the project pipeline for hydropower and coal is also sizeable, project delays and cancellations will present barriers to growth in both power segments. Myanmar's power sector will remain dominated by hydropower generation over our 10-year forecast period, underpinned by the government's keenness to exploit domestic hydropower resources and the already relatively well-established nature of the country's hydropower sector. As such, hydropower will contribute around 50% to the country's total power generation mix by 2026. However, growth in the gas-power segment will outperform that in the hydropower sector significantly, with the share of gas to increase in the power mix from just over 30% in 2016 to 40% in 2026. We expect annual average growth rates in gas-fired power generation of 9.1% between 2017 and 2026, compared to 4.8% in hydropower generation.
