Thailand is rolling out a pilot project that will allow data centers to directly purchase renewable power, a move that could make it easier for international tech giants to hit ambitious green goals in the developing nation.
The move is aimed to attract foreign companies that must use clean power, Thai Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin said in a statement posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. “Clean electricity is a very important competitive advantage and direct power purchase agreements will unlock the door for Thailand.”
