Reinforcing its ambition to achieve Net Zero by 2050
CK Power Public Company Limited, or CKPower, one of the region’s largest producers of electricity from renewables with one of the lowest carbon footprints, has reinforced its commitment for enhancing green and innovative sustainability to strengthen its neighbouring community, evidenced by two prestigious awards at the Thailand-Japan Decarbonization Award (TJDA) 2026.
The honourable Golden Award was given to “Waste and Wastewater Management in Power Generation Processes” project at Bangpa-in Cogeneration Power Plant in Ayutthaya province, and the Silver Award for the “Waste to Value-Hinghoi: Preserving and Restoring Natural Resources” project at Xayaburi Hydroelectric Power Plant in the Lao PDR.
The awards were organised by the Technology Promotion Association (Thailand-Japan) (TPA) for promoting organisations in developing and applying technologies and innovations that deliver tangible greenhouse gas emission reductions.
Under the company’s DNA for green innovation, its innovative team in Bangpa-in Cogeneration Power Plant developed effective technology for optimising lubricating oil management to reduce waste, together with enhancing water efficiency in the cooling system (cooling tower) by setting up a proper level of chemical control for water reuse. With advanced methods, it resulted in over 743 million litres of water consumption reduced, saving over 19.5 million baht. The amount of lu-bricating oil used was also cut down to over 28,000 litres, saving over 2.6 million baht in expenditure. Additionally, it helped to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by over 95,000 kg CO₂e.
