Message from the Chairman
17
We, the EGCO Board of Directors, are thankful for the shareholders continued support. We are committed to
creating the sustainable shareholders value and treating the stakeholders fairly. This can be achieved by the strong
commitment to oversee EGCO business with care and diligence and to ensure the full compliance with the spirit of the
laws.
The significant events in 2008 to be reported to the shareholders are as follows:
Power Business The year 2008 is a challenging one. The promising global and domestic economic outlook in the first half year
turned gloomy in the third quarter due to the impact from the global financial crisis and the domestic political turmoil. The
slow down in GDP growth had a direct impact on the electricity demand. As at December 31, 2008, the total installed
capacity of Thailands power system was 29,892 MW while the peak demand was in April at 22,568 MW which was 0.08%
lower than the peak demand in 2007. Due to the declining power consumption, the Ministry of Energy is in the process of
revising the PDP 2007 for the second round.
EGCO Growth As at December 31, 2008, EGCO Group operated 13 power plants with the equity MW of 3,967.6 which accounted
for 13.27% of the total installed capacity of Thailand. It should be noted that the equity MW of EGCO operating assets
increased by 458.5 MW from 3,509.1 equity MW in 2007. Significant events were as follows.
The 755-MW Kaeng Khoi 2 (Block 2) started the pre-commercial operation on February 27, 2008 which was before
the commercial operation date on March 1, 2008.
EGCO divested its entire shares in EGCO Joint Venture& Development Company Limited (EGCO JD) while EGCO
Engineering and Service Co., Ltd. (ESCO) divested all its shares in Amata Power-ESCO Service Co., Ltd which
provided operation and maintenance services to power plants under EGCO JD on May 15, 2008. The rationales
were that the assets comprised mature business in which EGCO held minority interests. Disposal of these minority
assets allowed EGCO to deploy the proceeds and its resources on new investment opportunities with potential for
expansion and earnings upside.
EGCO International (BVI) Co., Ltd, EGCOs wholly owned subsidiary, acquired 90% ownership of GPI Quezon Ltd
shares. This purchase provided EGCO BVI with a 23.4% indirect ownership interest in Quezon Power (Philippines)
Limited which owned, operated and maintained a 502.5 MW (gross installed capacity) coal fired electric
generation representing 117.6 equity MW on November 29, 2008. This acquisition was in line with EGCOs business
plan to invest in power businesses in the ASEAN region.
EGCO is the first independent power producer that uses diversified fuel for power generation which is in line with the
Governments policy to foster the reliability of the power generation system. If including the capacity of Nam Theun II
hydropower plant, EGCOs first hydropower plant, which has the scheduled COD in December 2009, EGCO MW equity will
increase to 4,239.3 comprising the gas and oil fired power plants, coal fired power plant, hydropower plant and biomass
power plant which accounts for 73.5%, 19.7%, 6.4% and 0.4% of EGCO capacity, respectively.
With regard to future growth, although the current economic circumstances are negative for new project
development, EGCO believes in Thailands potential and views that there is still an opportunity to invest in projects that
provide acceptable returns. EGCO will seek to invest in operating assets or assets under construction and will continue to
explore the opportunities to develop renewable energy such as wind, solar and biomass to sustain our leadership and
strength in the power sector.
18
Social and Environment Commitment EGCO Group is well aware that the business growth will go hand in hand with the social and environment
commitment. As such, EGCO will develop the business in a way that is friendly to the environment and the nearby
communities taking into account the sustained benefits of all stakeholders. The major social and environment projects in
2008 were as follows.
Mitigation of business impact on the environment: The initiatives include the strict adherence to the Governments
standards and continuous monitoring of the air and noise quality.
Best and economical use of energy and natural resources: The programs include recycling of water and waste.
Energy and natural resource conservation including the fight against the global warming: The initiatives include
fostering awareness on energy and natural resources conservation and reforestation.
Community Development: The projects include the investment in the community to increase the villagers income.
EGCO will continue its social and environment commitment. In this regard, EGCO will try its best to reduce the
impact from its operation on the community and the environment and to extend the initiatives to enhance the quality of
life of surrounding communities.
Operating Result The 2008 operating result is in line with the expectation. EGCO posted the net profit of 6,927 million baht
representing the earnings per share of 13.16 baht. The interim dividend payment from the first half year operation was
paid at 2.50 baht per share. EGCO is confident that it can maintain the dividend payment at an appropriate and
consistent rate. In addition, EGCO will endeavor to ensure that the companys financial status remains strong to serve
future investment.
Achievements EGCOs strong commitment has been honored by various institutions. For example, EGCO was ranked seventh in
Thailand for best investor relations and fourth for being most committed to a strong dividend policy in a poll conducted
by FinanceAsia. In addition, it was ranked eighth for best top ten companies in Thailand and fourth for best public
companies in power and utility industry in a poll conducted by Finance and Banking Magazine. EGCO also received
various 2008 SET Awards, being the Top Corporate Governance Report Award from the Stock Exchange of Thailand, best
Shareholders Award from Thailand Securities Depository Company Limited, and excellent Corporate Governance Report
Rating from the Thai Institution of Directors. EGCO was also shortlisted as one of the ten shortlisted candidates for CSR
award.
EGCO Group power plants were also successful. Khanom Power Plant or KEGCO was awarded the National Safety
Awards for 2008 for Safety and Occupational Health for the ninth consecutive year and the Outstanding Workplace for
Labor Relations and Welfare by the Department of Labor Protection and Welfare, Ministry of Labor, for the second
consecutive year. Meanwhile, Roi Et Green Power Plant was also awarded the Safety Excellence Award in Provincial
Level
We realize that all the success has resulted from kindest support and cooperation from stakeholders including
shareholders, customers, business partners, and the public which enables us to operate efficiently with commitment to
environment conservation and social development. On behalf of EGCO, I would like to express my gratitude to the
shareholders and all stakeholders in supporting our business. Your support is the strongest motivation for EGCO Group
people to further develop our business and to make a fair return to our shareholders while treating other stakeholders fairly
and ethically for the sustainable benefits of the Thai people.
We, EGCO Group, will continue our path as a responsible power generator with full will power.

EGCO : The First Independent Power Producer EGCO is the f i r s t independent power producer in Thai land
incorporated on May 12, 1992 by Electricity Generating Authority of
Thailand (EGAT). Such incorporation marked the commencement of
the Thai governments privatization initiatives to allow broader private
sector investment in the electricity generating sector. On March 23,
1994, EGCO was transformed into a public company and then listed
on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) on January 16, 1995.
Significant Events EGCOs investment is a long term one. As at December 31, 2008,
EGCO Group operated 13 power plants with 3,967.60 equity MW which
accounted for 13.27% of the total installed capacity of Thailand. It should be
noted that the equity MW of operating assets increased by 458.50 MW from
3,509.10 equity MW in 2007. Significant events were as follows :
1. Kaeng Khoi 2, Gulf Power Generations project with the capacity of 755 MW,
started the pre-commercial operation date on February 27, 2008 which was before the commercial operation
date on March 1, 2008.
2. EGCO International (BVI) Co., Ltd., (EGCO BVI) EGCOs wholly owned subsidiary, acquired 90% ownership of GPI
Quezon Ltd. shares. This purchase provided EGCO BVI with a 23.4% indirect ownership interest in Quezon Power
(Philippines) Limited Co. which owned, operated and maintained a 502.5 MW (gross installed capacity) coal fired
electric generation representing 117.6 equity MW on November 29, 2008. This acquisition was in line with
EGCOs business plan to invest in power businesses in the ASEAN region. The acquisition strengthened EGCOs
presence in the Republic of the Philippines which should provide opportunities for future growth.
3. EGCOs divested its entire shares in EGCO Joint Venture & Development Company Limited (EGCO JD) which
held shares in Amata EGCO Power Co., Ltd. and Amata Power (Bang Pakong) Co., Ltd. on May 15, 2008. The
divestment reasons was that the assets comprised mature business in which EGCO held minority interests.
Disposal of these minority assets allowed EGCO to deploy the proceeds and its resources on new investment
opportunities with potential for expansion and earnings upside.
4. EGCO Engineering and Service Co., Ltd. (ESCO), EGCOs wholly owned subsidiary, divested all its shares in
Amata Power-ESCO Services Co., Ltd. which provided operation and maintenance services to power plants
under EGCO JD on May 15, 2008.
5. The 1,086.8 MW Nam Theun 2 hydropower plant developed by Nam Theun 2 Power Company Limited
(NTPC) of which EGCO holds a 25% ownership achieved the overall progress of 95.1% at the end of 2008
which was as planned. The project was expected to achieve the COD within December 2009 as scheduled.
Business Lines EGCO businesses can be divided into 4 groups as follows:
1. Independent Power Producer (IPP) Group: This Group comprises 4 companies being Rayong Electricity
Generating Co., Ltd., Khanom Electricity Generating Co., Ltd, BLCP Power Limited and Gulf Power
Generation Co., Ltd. The combined equity MW is 3,528 MW which accounts for 88.92% of EGCOs total

EGCO as the first IPP put EGCO at advantage in terms of location, qualified workforce and reputation on corporate social
responsibility which earns the trust from the government and the public at large. Due to limited investment opportunity in
Thailand over a short term, EGCO adjusts its strategy to invest in quality overseas projects, fuel-related projects and
domestic renewable energy projects which includes the solar, wind power and biomass plants to maintain its leadership
and market shares and to strengthen EGCO Group.
EGCO prudently prepares to cope with volatile situations by way of cost control and expense reduction. EGCO also
keeps up monitoring the energy and economic circumstances in a bid to foster the appropriate strategy to foster EGCOs
growth.

Power Industry and Competition
The peak demand in 2008 was on April 21, 2008 at 22,568 MW, which was lower than the peak demand recorded
in 2007 at 22,586 MW or 0.08% decrease from the previous year (figure 1). As of December 31, 2008, the total installed
capacity of Thailands power system was 29,892 MW. Of that amount, approximately 50% (15,021 MW), 41%(12,152 MW),
7% (2,079 MW) was owned by EGAT, IPPs, and SPPs while approximately 640 MW or 2% was imported from Laos and
Malaysia (figure 2)
During the first half of the year 2008, the worlds economy and the Thais economy were in a good condition.
However, after the third quarter, Thailand has faced both world economy decline and its political turmoil, which lowered
the GDP growth. This had a direct impact on the electricity demand. As a result, the Ministry of Energy is revising the PDP
2007 for the second round and it is now in the process.
Thailands last round of IPP bidding was ended in December 2007. Four power plant licenses were awarded by the
Ministry of Energy with a total capacity of 4,400 MW, comprising 3,200 MW from gas fired projects and 1,200 MW from
coal fired projects. Recently, only GHECO-One has passed the EIA approval process and started construction while the
rests are waiting for the EIA approval and PPA sign with the tendency to delay the COD to be in line with the economic
downturn situation.
Losing an opportunity to invest in projects from the recent round of IPP bidding, EGCO and RATCH are missing out
on domestic expansion opportunities during 2010-2013. GLOW is the only listed IPP that won a 660 MW coal-fired power
plant, which is scheduled to commence operation in October 2011.
With the unpleasant growth outlook in Thailand which limits upside for Thai power company, EGCO and other power
companies need to adjust the business strategy to expand their investment in neighboring countries such as Lao PDR,
Myanmar and Cambodia, which will supply electricity back to Thailand, and also on investing in the project relating to
fuel supply such as LNG. Moreover, EGCO will pursue the investment possibility in renewable energy projects such as wind,
waste and biomass power plants.
