Net zero initiatives showcased at Sustainability Expo 2023

วันที่เผยแพร่ 4 October 2023

Sustainability Expo 2023 (SX2023) officially commenced on 2 October 2023 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center. Regarded as the largest sustainability exposition in the ASEAN region, the event, which extended until 8 October, aimed to promote sustainable practices and knowledge through a series of seminars and exciting exhibitions. 

During the expo, NXPO, in collaboration with the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment and various public and private organizations, organized an exhibition to showcase Thailand’s initiatives towards net zero. These initiatives included the establishment of low-carbon economic zones and the introduction of net zero innovations. 

Several projects have been launched to create various models for a low-carbon city development in Thailand. The Phuket Sandbox serves as a model for low-carbon tourism, while the Saraburi Sandbox is a model for a green industrial city. The Mae Moh Model exemplifies the transition from fossil fuels to clean energy, and the Green Campus demonstrates the implementation of net zero actions in universities.  

In addition to government initiatives, the exhibition also featured net zero commitments in the private sector. Bitwise (Thailand), a manufacturer of TASAKI air conditioners, presented its latest technology in a solar hybrid air conditioner.  This air conditioning system can utilize the direct current (DC) power produced by photovoltaic panels, eliminating the need for an inverter to convert the DC power to alternating current (AC). 

The exhibition presented by NXPO and its partners represents a significant effort to introduce low-carbon technologies and innovations, thereby enabling Thailand to achieve net zero emissions. 

These exhibits also lay the groundwork for the preparation of the Thailand Pavilion at the 28th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP28), scheduled for 28 November – 12 December 2023, in Dubai, UAE. 

Please contact Thailand_nde@nxpo.or.th for more information on low-carbon economic zones, and Line: @Tasakiair for additional information on the solar hybrid air conditioner.
