A carbon tax is coming! How must Thai businesses adapt to clean energy?
As the world changes, your business must change too. Don't let a "carbon tax" add unnecessary costs.
In today's business world, the term "environment" is no longer just about protecting the planet, but rather a "new cost" that will directly impact your company's profits and losses. "Carbon taxes" and various environmental measures are being seriously pushed globally, which will certainly affect Thai businesses, especially exporters.
Today, Energy X invites you to understand what a carbon tax is and, more importantly, how to ensure your business survives and grows sustainably. We'll turn this challenge into an opportunity with clean energy from solar rooftops, which not only reduces electricity costs but also builds long-term resilience for your business.
1. Carbon Tax / CBAM: A new cost that businesses need to be aware of.
Carbon Tax & CBAM (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism) refers to fines calculated based on the amount of carbon dioxide emissions from product manufacturing. The more emissions, the higher the payment. This directly impacts export products that must compete in the global market, as well as businesses within the supply chain of large corporations.
Impact on Thai businesses: If they don't adapt, products will become more expensive, they will be at a disadvantage compared to competitors, and may face trade barriers in the future.
2. Solar Rooftop: The fastest and most immediate solution for reducing your carbon footprint.
Reducing reliance on fossil fuels: Generating electricity for self-use from solar power on factory rooftops helps reduce the need to purchase electricity from traditional sources that typically use fossil fuels, a major cause of carbon emissions.
Measurable Results: Using clean energy allows you to report a lower Corporate Carbon Footprint (CFO), which is crucial for business negotiations and image building.
3. Add value to your business while receiving benefits from the government.
Positive Image: Being a green business attracts more environmentally conscious customers and partners.
BOI Opportunities & Tax Benefits: Investing in Solar Rooftop systems is eligible for benefits from the Board of Investment (BOI), including exemption from corporate income tax, making the investment even more worthwhile.
