on 30–31 October 2025, the National Energy Technology Center (ENTEC), National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA), participated as part of the TAIST–Science Tokyo delegation at “The 15th Ota Research and Development Fair 2025” held in Tokyo, Japan. The participation aimed to present Thailand’s research achievements in renewable energy and to strengthen international collaboration with Japanese technology and research institutions.
The fair was honored by the presence of distinguished executives, including Dr. Somboon Sahasithiwat, Executive Vice President of NSTDA, Ms. Sirinporn Deawtrakool, Deputy Executive Director of the National Research Council of Thailand (NRCT), and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Preecha Karin, representing the academic collaboration under the TAIST program. Their visit provided motivation and support for Thai researchers showcasing their work on the international stage. ENTEC nominated Mr. Nayos Sirisoot, Research Assistant of the Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Research Team, who was selected as one of only seven representatives to present his research among TAIST–Science Tokyo participants. This opportunity marks a significant milestone, reflecting the potential of Thai early-career researchers to contribute to global scientific dialogue.
Mr. Sirisoot presented the research titled “Assessment of Biogas Reforming for Hydrogen Production,” which examines hydrogen production pathways from biogas and evaluates the feasibility of the process in terms of energy performance and practical implementation. The work aligns with global efforts in advancing clean energy solutions and supports the transition towards a sustainable hydrogen economy.
This international engagement reinforces ENTEC’s commitment to driving clean energy innovation, enhancing research visibility, and fostering collaboration with leading scientific and industrial communities in Japan. Such cooperation is expected to pave the way for future joint research initiatives and impactful applications benefiting Thailand’s sustainable energy development.
