520			_aThis study examine the electricity planning, economic and environmental effects of carbon tax in Thailand's electricity supply sector using integrated resource planning perspective. For environmental effect of carbon tax, this study has also determined the contribution of technological substitution effect and electricity price effect of carbon tax on total C02 emission reduction. The evaluation of potential for renewable energy for electricity generation in Thailand and implication of renewable energy on power sector under carbon tax policy have also been considered. The study is analyzed least cost expansion planing for Thailand during 2005-2019 using TRP and 1RP with variation of carbon tax between 0$ per ton of carbon to 400$ per ton of carbon. The key finding of this study is a technology substitution in electricity planing toward cleaner technologies and significant reduction in total electricity generation with carbon tax. Low carbon tax level such as 10$-20$ seem to be most economic range of carbon tax to reduce C02 emission according to cost-benefit consideration. While the higher carbon tax rate would reduce more considerably C02 but needed more per unit C02 reduction expenditure. In the study about renewable energy technologies, fuelwood and rice husk were found to be an attractive option for electricity generation in Thailand. Municipal solid wasted would become attractive since under low carbon tax level. PV is another renewable energy technologies that competitive under high carbon tax.
