Chiang Rai’s transport sector make up about 72.6 per cent of the total energy demand and contributed 64 per cent of the province’s GHG emissions in 2018. Hence, ambitious policy actions for the transport sector are critical for Chiang Rai to realize substantial GHG emission reduction, aligning with the national NDC commitment, specifically, through the adoption of transport electrification.
Thailand has a grand plan for e-mobility, targeting 50 per cent zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) of its domestic vehicle production by 2030, and an ambitious target for the registration of new cars to be 100 per cent ZEVs by 2035(Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 2021) . The SET scenario targets a 50 per cent electric share for passenger cars, 25 per cent electric share for motorbikes, 50 per cent electric vehicle share for buses and minibuses, and 25 per cent electric vehicle share for freight transport. These, all together, are projected to reduce 173.7 ktoe of energy demand and 553.5 ktCO2-e of GHG emissions reduction in 2030.
