Thailand: China-Thailand green cooperation projects boost Thai livelihoods, energy transition
Storyline: Ubon Ratchathani province in Thailand has become a landmark for China-Thailand clean energy cooperation, hosting a solar-powered charity school and the world's largest hydro-floating solar project. These initiatives are transforming local livelihoods and driving a shift in the country's energy structure. Ubon Ratchathani is nestled in a bend of the Mekong River. With over 2,000 hours of sunshine annually and sunlight intensity reaching as high as 5.2 kilowatt-hours per square meter, which is 27 percent higher than cities such as the capital Bangkok, the region is ideal for solar power generation. Sisaengtham school, a charity school in Ubon Ratchathani, is powered by solar panels manufactured in China. Phra Panyawachiramoli, the school's founder, stated that before installing the solar panels, the electricity bill amounted to 500 U.S. dollars per month. It has now been massively reduced to just 1.2 U.S. dollars, bringing significant savings to the school. A hydro-floating solar project in the Sirindhorn Dam is the world's largest integrated hydro-floating solar project and one of Ubon Ratchathani's main tourist attractions. Launched in 2021 and co-developed by China Energy Engineering Group, the project features a massive array of solar panels, totaling 144,000 and covering an area equivalent to 70 football fields, creating a shimmering, sci-fi-like landscape. The Sirindhorn Dam integrated hydro-floating solar project reduces carbon emissions by 47,000 tons annually. With an annual output of 76 million kilowatt-hours, it provides enough energy for 28,300 people for a year. Shotlist: FILE: Ubon Ratchathani Province, Thailand - 2024: 1.
