The company plans to raise the share of electricity from renewables to 95% from 89%.

Thailand-based CKPower announced plans to achieve net zero emissions of greenhouse gases across its electricity generation plants by 2050. 

"We have adopted this challenging goal to reduce our absolute emissions of greenhouse gases by 100%,” Thanawat Trivisvavet, Managing Director of CKPower, said. 

“It's a decision we have made in consideration of the 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26), and to support Thailand's national policy to rapidly increase renewables-based electricity generation for both domestic as well as industrial use.”
