  • Shwe Myoh Solar Power Plant to begin power generation in June 2026

The Shwe Myoh Solar Power Plant, located in Zeyathiri Township, Nay Pyi Taw Council Area, is expected to begin generating electricity in June 2026.
Currently, work on the solar tracker systems, including the base and tracker poles, has been completed. Of the total 60,000 solar panels planned for installation, approximately 40,000 have already been installed, and the remaining 20,000 will be installed by the end of February.
The Shwe Myoh Solar Power Project is expected to generate nearly 200 megawatts of electricity daily starting in June. The electricity will be directly connected to the national grid and transmitted to the Shwe Myoh Substation, which is owned by the Ministry of Electric Power.
The Shwe Myoh Solar Power Project uses the latest technologies. The solar tracker system is equipped with AI technology and weather stations and includes automatic control systems that rotate the solar panels toward the sunlight and protect them from damage caused by hail and strong winds.
The project was initiated in 2022 with land acquisition, soil studies, and documentation preparation, and piling work for the first phase of the project began in April 2025.
The project is planned to generate 30 megawatts in the first phase and 30 megawatts each in the second and third phases, for a total capacity of 90 megawatts. Upon completion, the project is expected to partially meet the country’s electricity needs. — ASH/TH
