Academics and renewable energy experts join a forum on Renewable Energy Investment in Thailand. A new report is also launched: ‘Renewable energy job creation in Thailand’, which shows how the RE sector can be a major growth driver for employment and the Thai economy if it is properly supported.
The report is launched in Phuket during the visit of the Greenpeace flagship, the Rainbow Warrior, which is in the country for its “Rainbow Warrior Ship Tour 2018: 100% Renewable Energy for All” tour. The ship is in the province to show how a transition to renewable energy not only helps avoid the most disastrous impacts of climate change, but also benefits the economy by providing more jobs and income, and fostering innovation, knowledge and skills.
