Ratchahat Siripanich, director of the Energy Conservation Promotion Fund Office, revealed that the fund's allocation for fiscal year 2025 totals 7.5 billion baht. The framework covers 55,058 approved systems with a combined installed capacity of 33,968 kilowatts, with committed support at roughly 60 percent of the total budget.

The fund prioritizes projects delivering concrete benefits through clean energy and energy efficiency technology, including reduced energy costs, improved energy access, and enhanced quality of life for citizens. Solar power systems for remote communities and unelectrified households across 47 areas will receive 628 million baht to support 8,932 systems generating approximately 5,707 kilowatts.

Solar-powered agricultural water-pumping systems in collaboration with relevant agencies will also be funded across 12 projects nationwide, covering some 1,200 systems with approximately 658 million baht in support. These initiatives will lower energy costs for livelihoods and improve water efficiency for agriculture and public services.

Additional support extends to energy projects in state hospitals, border security zones, business energy efficiency investments, industrial facilities, and public sector agencies. The fund aims to ensure every baht delivers tangible results—reducing energy expenses, expanding access, and strengthening efficiency across communities, agriculture, business, and government.
