More funding planned for green energy research
Bangkok Post
|January 15, 2026
Thailand is stepping up efforts to support R&D in alternative energy, with officials preparing to allocate more financial resources to projects that advance clean technologies such as hydrogen.
The move is part of the country’s broader strategy to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, 15 years earlier than previously promised.
Funding is to be distributed through the Energy Conservation Fund, which backs initiatives aimed at improving energy efficiency and conservation.
Rathachat Siripanich, manager of the fund's office, said the exact budget will be determined by the government, but stressed that authorities are not ignoring the importance of alternative energy.
