Banpu NEXT, a leading Net Zero Solutions provider in the Asia-Pacific region, today announced its strong progress in Thailand’s commercial & industrial (C&I) sector, having successfully delivered Net Zero Solutions to 160 customer projects nationwide. Encompassing solar systems, energy efficiency, and green transportation (commercial fleet management), these projects are expected to reduce CO2 emissions by up to 82,000 tons annually. This reinforces the company’s position as a long-term and trusted Net Zero partner, empowering Thailand’s industrial transformation through intelligent solutions that create business value and sustainable returns.

Mr. Smittipon Srethapramote, Chief Executive Officer of Banpu NEXT Co., Ltd., said, “Our performance reflects the accelerated transition of the Thai C&I sector toward clean energy, a pivotal shift* fueled by escalating energy costs, increasingly stringent environmental regulations, and sustained industrial growth. Operators are increasingly adopting diverse clean energy solutions – including solar, commercial EVs, and advanced energy efficiency systems like chillers and cooling systems – which are projected to expand at an average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 10% between 2025 and 2030**. This evolving landscape demands robust, holistic decarbonization strategies and integrated executions that address every pain point. Our one-stop-service model and strategic commitment to intelligent clean energy solutions enable us to respond to these needs comprehensively.”

Banpu NEXT provides a unique integrated Net Zero ecosystem, starting with Net Zero consulting. This initial phase leverages an AI-enhanced platform that supports operational workflows by assisting in the calculation and tracking of direct and indirect GHG emissions and carbon footprint assessments, tackling customers’ pain points by understanding their companies’ footprints, establishing baseline data to help them meet carbon emission standards, and changing their perception of Net Zero from a financial burden to a valuable investment. Banpu NEXT transforms these barriers into opportunities by providing actionable insights – identifying “leaking energy” and “unnecessary consumption” – and demonstrating tax benefits for businesses reducing greenhouse gas emissions, adding brand equity for international partnership opportunities, and preparedness for carbon tariffs.

Beyond consultation, the company offers integrated AI and smart tech-enabled solutions spanning solar systems, energy efficiency, and green transportation, all designed to lower carbon emissions across all scopes while reducing operational costs. Through this ecosystem approach, businesses can achieve a systemic shift toward clean energy that transcends siloed solutions.

Demonstrating its commitment and expertise, Banpu NEXT has served various C&I customer sectors, including manufacturing, retail, and hospitality, by deploying solar and chiller systems integrated with digital platforms, delivering significant annual reductions in CO2 emissions and energy savings. For logistics and transportation customers, Banpu NEXT’s fleet management systems and EV charging stations enhance their operational efficiency while simultaneously reducing logistics costs and CO2 emissions. In 2025, the company secured 48 new signed contracts and completed 19 commercial operation date (COD) customer projects. These implementations consistently deliver sustainable returns for customers, including significant energy cost savings of up to 55%, attractive ROIs, reduced payback periods of 5-6 years***, and optimized energy efficiency, underscoring Banpu NEXT’s ability to drive both environmental and economic benefits for its customers.

Looking forward, Banpu NEXT aims to drive industrial decarbonization through total solutions and support customers’ Net Zero journeys while optimizing energy costs, improving operational performance, and boosting competitiveness. At the same time, these efforts are decarbonizing the company’s supply chain in alignment with its ambition to become a Net Zero company by 2040.
