The company continues to invest in this energy source as it helps manage costs effectively, especially when energy prices are volatile. To address the country's energy crisis, Mr Sanan suggested government subsidies and support to ensure energy prices remain appropriate and managed during this period, while alleviating shortages to strengthen confidence in energy security. This effort should include exploring both renewable energy such as solar and alternative energy sources such as biomass, said Mr Sanan. As the energy crisis weighs on the economy, it could spark growth in digital and clean energy industries, said Ms Naruechon. "In a way, the energy crisis will indicate in which direction Thai energy management should go," he said.
