Abstract: 
The development of rubberwood into electricity generation for biomass power plant is one of the most interested renewable energy options in Southern part of Thailand. This research presents a biomass supply chain for power generation is Southern part of Thailand focusing on only rubberwood in Southern region including three border provinces and the survey on one rubberwood power plant. The results show that the remaining potential of biomass from rubberwood in three border provinces for electricity generation is approximately 40.2 MW and the amount of biomass in other provinces within the radius of 200-km, 187.62 MW is remaining. Therefore, only 40.2 MW remaining potential for NEW power plant in three border provinces from rubberwood, more rubberwood needs to be imported from other provinces. The policy recommendation from this research is import the rubberwood from other provinces or long-term contract with supplier.
