Energy
  • Collaboration with the National Metal and Materials Technology Center (MTEC), NSTDA: We have partnered with MTEC to develop a framework for assessing technology and investment feasibility. This initiative aims to provide policy recommendations for the industrial sector to support informed decision-making on investments in Bio-Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) technology in Thailand.
  • Research and Monitoring of Green Energy Technologies: We continuously study and track advancements in green energy technologies to ensure preparedness for future energy transitions. Key focus areas include Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), Green Hydrogen Technology, Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
  • Supporting Sustainability Goals – Preparing for the transition to clean energy to enhance competitive advantage and drive sustainable organizational growth.
  • Strategic Investment Planning – Identifying and investing in high-potential, long-term projects such as Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), Green Hydrogen, Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
  • Enhancing Energy Efficiency – Optimizing energy utilization, improving energy storage and management capabilities, and minimizing resource losses.
Non
Information Technology
  • Implemented IT systems for engineering management, providing engineering feedback through online platforms. This allows for data recording, review, and retrieval from the system, reducing manual labor and errors in record-keeping.
  • Developed AMR (Automatic Meter Reading) software and a billing system to enhance operational efficiency.
  • Implemented systems according to the department's requirements, including ERP, MyHr, CAR OI Online, and engineering feedback systems.
  • Established cybersecurity systems, including PAM (Privileged Access Management), WAF (Web Application Firewall), and DLP (Data Loss Prevention), to ensure robust protection.
  • Enhance work efficiency and effectiveness.
  • Ensure the safety of connecting or using the company's information systems in compliance with international standards.
  • Respond to the needs of departments seeking to modernize their information systems.
  • Support the organization's business expansion through digital transformation.

  • Develop a project to add value to sugarcane leaves by processing them into sugarcane briquettes.
  • Further develop the IREC business by promoting renewable energy power plants to register for IREC and encouraging factories with policies to reduce GHG emissions to use IREC to lower Scope 2 GHG emissions.
  • Add value to agricultural waste products such as sugarcane leaves by processing them into compressed sugarcane leaves for sale as fuel to factories. This not only helps reduce pollution from the burning of sugarcane leaves by farmers but also increases income for farmers by allowing them to sell the leaves to factories.
  • Support the policy to reduce GHG emissions under Scope 2 by compensating through IREC (International Renewable Energy Certificates).
