GPSC joined hands with the Renewable Energy Industry Club, Federation of Thai Industries (FTI), promoting clean energy under the 5-year project “Kon Mee Fai (คนมีไฟ)”, supplying 500 kilowatts for the non-profit organizations and the government agencies while opening access to clean energy technologies, with an aim to reduce electricity costs, increase social contributions, and take care of environment in a sustainable manner.

Mrs. Rosaya Teinwan, Executive Vice President - Business Development of Global Power Synergy Public Company Limited or GPSC, the innovative power flagship of PTT Group, revealed that GPSC has collaborated with the Renewable Energy Industry Club, Federation of Thai Industries (FTI), in order to promote the clean energy under the project named “Kon Mee Fai (คนมีไฟ)”, which is designated especially for any agencies determined to turn their electricity costs into development projects for surrounding areas in a sustainable manner. The project focuses mainly on the supply of clean energy produced from the on-grid solar system just for the benefits of government agencies and non-profit organizations that operate on education, public health, natural resources, and the environment. The duration of the project is 5 years, from 2023-2027, with a total installed capacity of 500 kilowatts, which is predicted to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 6,900 tons of carbon dioxide equivalents. The project, with a total estimated budget of over 20 million baht, will start this year with the first installation of 100 kilowatts.

The collaboration of this project shall lead to the development of clean energy at the community level and among the government agencies. The budget derived from the reduced electricity costs after installing the system shall be used for the development of communities surrounding the participating agencies. It is a commitment of GPSC and the Renewable Energy Industry Club, Federation of Thai Industries (FTI), to provide all sectors with an access to clean energy innovations and technologies. Not only can the project help reduce utilities expenses, but it is also designated to serve as a learning center for the environmentally friendly energy, which is a model for sustainable community development.

The interested agencies can apply for the project via Email: GPSC.csr@gmail.com or Tel/Line-id: 097-150-5161 during 1 - 31 August 2023. The selection process will take place on 1-15 September 2023. After that, there will be a survey on the qualified agencies and the installation shall be conducted by December 2023.

The objective of this project is to generate engagement and ownership in the installed solar power system under mutually agreed terms and conditions. The electricity fund and the guidelines for project implementation shall be established as well, along with the transfer of maintenance knowledge so that the system’s power generation efficiency can be maintained throughout its lifetime. In addition, the project is regarded as a collaborative development model that can provide the communities with knowledge and knowhow related to energy conservation. Not only that, the project plays a vital role to encourage the communities and the government agencies to contribute to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions, which is believed to lead to the sustainable reduction of global warming.
