SUT: support government in policy development
SUT: support government in policy development
Informing and supporting the government in developing clean energy policies and energy-efficient technologies. The key roles in informing and supporting the government in developing clean energy policies and energy-efficient technologies are as follows:
Research and Development: The university conducts research and development on innovations related to clean energy and energy-saving technologies, including the development of more efficient solar energy technologies, higher-capacity battery energy storage, and smart energy management systems. These research findings can serve as important references for policy and legislative development. - Smart Energy Innovation - Sustainable Renewable Energy
Consulting with the Government: The university has established a Center of Excellence in Biomass to provide consulting services to internal and external agencies, including the government, for decision-making on clean energy policies. This may include producing research reports that propose guidelines for developing or improving policies to meet the country's needs and capabilities. - Center of Excellence in Biomass
Public Events and Education: Suranaree University of Technology (SUT) organizes seminars and training courses on clean energy and energy-saving technologies. These activities help enhance understanding among the public and businesses, promoting wider use of clean energy and encouraging public support for the government's clean energy policies.
Collaboration with Public and Private Sectors:
The university has signed Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with public and private sectors to implement projects related to clean energy and energy conservation, such as developing smart grid systems, creating model communities that use renewable energy, and supporting research and testing of new technologies.
Sustainable University Network: Establishing a network of sustainable universities serves as a crucial platform for formulating policies for university development based on sustainable development principles, exchanging knowledge and experiences, and defining standards and indicators for sustainable university performance. This is a vital part of upgrading universities within Thailand and fostering collaboration among higher education institutions in line with the international sustainable development context. The goal is to create a significant model for various sectors of Thai society, which can be replicated and expanded to other sectors in the future. - Sustainable University Network - SUT Showcases: Green Energy
University involvement can therefore strengthen comprehensive and sustainable policies, enabling the country to develop clean energy in a stable and efficient manner.
