Khanom Power Plant

Khanom Power Plant is the largest power plant in Southern Thailand. The plant is located on an area of 484 rai at the mouth of the Khanom River, Khanom District, Nakhon Si Thammarat. Khanom Power Plant Unit 4 has a power purchase agreement (PPA) with the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) for 930-megawatts of electricity supply for 25 years. Khanom Power Plant uses natural gas from the Gulf of Thailand as the main source of fuel. Natural gas is delivered through the 320-kilometer pipeline to the gas separation facility in Khanom and then to the gas metering and regulating station at the north of the power plant. This gas supply system can sustain the required natural gas volume during the power plant’s maximum load of 230 cubic feet per day.
