The National Energy Technology Center (ENTEC), under the National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA), Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation (MHESI), is participating in ASIA Sustainable Energy Week 2026 (ASEW 2026), one of Asia’s largest international exhibitions and conferences dedicated to clean energy technologies. Held from 1–3 July 2026 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center under the theme “Empowering Asia’s Clean Energy Future,” the event brings together policymakers, researchers, industry leaders, and international partners to accelerate the transition toward clean energy systems and a low-carbon society through research, innovation, and collaboration.
Leading the ENTEC delegation, Dr. Somboon Sahasithiwat, Executive Director of ENTEC, together with ENTEC executives and researchers, participated in the opening ceremony of ASIA Sustainable Energy Week 2026 (ASEW 2026). Throughout the event, the delegation engaged with experts and strategic partners from across the region to exchange knowledge, foster research collaborations, and strengthen international partnerships that support the development and deployment of clean energy technologies. These efforts contribute to Thailand’s long-term goals of achieving Carbon Neutrality and Net Zero Greenhouse Gas Emissions.
As Thailand’s national energy research center, ENTEC is showcasing its research capabilities, technologies, and innovations spanning the entire energy value chain—from energy production, storage, and utilization to sustainable energy management. Through its multidisciplinary research and technology development, ENTEC aims to support the country’s transition to a low-carbon economy, enhance industrial competitiveness, and strengthen national energy security.
A key highlight of ENTEC’s participation is its role in co-organizing and supporting a series of international technical conferences and knowledge-sharing forums. These platforms bring together researchers, industry experts, policymakers, and technology developers to exchange insights on emerging energy technologies while fostering regional research and innovation partnerships. Discussions focus on rapidly evolving fields including hydrogen technologies, low-carbon fuels, energy storage systems, advanced battery technologies, and pathways toward a clean energy future.
ENTEC also highlights a wide range of technologies and innovations with strong potential for real-world industrial and societal applications, including:
- Battery technologies and energy storage systems
- End-of-Life Battery Management, including 2nd-Life Utilization and Battery Material Recycling to advance a circular economy
- Hydrogen technologies and next-generation energy carriers
- Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and other low-carbon transportation fuels
- Solar energy technologies, including the management of decommissioned photovoltaic (PV) panels, reuse, and recycling.
- Energy management systems and energy efficiency solutions for industrial facilities and buildings
- Research on energy policy, standards, and enabling mechanisms that support Thailand’s energy transition
Beyond presenting its research and technological achievements, ENTEC is leveraging ASEW 2026 as a strategic platform to strengthen partnerships with government agencies, industry, universities, and research organizations in Thailand and internationally. By fostering collaborative research, accelerating technology transfer, and promoting the commercialization of innovative solutions, ENTEC aims to advance Thailand’s clean energy ecosystem while strengthening regional cooperation.
ENTEC’s participation in ASEW 2026 underscores its role as Thailand’s national energy research and development organization, driving innovation to support the country’s energy transition. Through cutting-edge research, technology development, and international collaboration, ENTEC continues to translate scientific excellence into practical solutions that enhance energy security, industrial competitiveness, and sustainable development, while contributing to Thailand’s long-term Carbon Neutrality and Net Zero Greenhouse Gas Emissions goals.
