for the problem Climate change Change) has become a major problem affecting every region in the world, affecting life in every ecosystem on a large scale. which recently This has been announced that our world has crossed over from the era of "Global Warming" to "Global Boiling" and more importantly, it is predicted that if the global temperature increases another 1-2 degrees Celsius, it will become more severe. Therefore, today every sector must prepare to deal with and work together to quickly solve the problem of climate change. Thailand aims to tackle climate change by reaching carbon neutrality. and net zero greenhouse gas emissions. From such importance combined with the response to Thailand's clean energy policy, Informa Markets, as a business leader in organizing trade shows, and regional business activities Continuing cooperation with the Ministry of Energy Thai Electric Vehicle Association and network of business partners in energy and environment both from Thailand and abroad. jointly opened the ASEAN Sustainable event Energy Week (ASEW) and ELECTRIC VEHICLE ASIA (EVA) 2023 to connect opportunities Create knowledge and expand the framework for working with all sectors to respond to important policies to drive Thailand's clean energy transition towards the goal of carbon neutrality.
Deputy Permanent Secretary of the Energy Ministry said that greenhouse gas emissions from the energy sector have contributed to climate change and global warming. Therefore, Thailand is committed to the transition from fossil fuels to low-carbon fuels. so that Thailand can achieve its goal of carbon neutrality by the year 2011 2050 and net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2065. The Ministry of Energy has moved forward to promote and support the reduction of carbon emissions from the energy sector in line with the National Energy Plan (NEP) that Focus on strengthening energy security and sustainable energy, for example, increasing the proportion of using renewable and clean energy for electricity generation in new power plants by at least 50 percent by 2040, as well as promoting production. Electric vehicles (EV) to account for 30 percent by 2020. 2030 by setting important goals for Thailand to become a low-carbon society in the future. The Ministry of Energy believes that this forum will serve as an important link in preparing all sectors to meet the country's goals set in the future.

We are considered another sector that comes to enhance knowledge. Understanding of electric vehicle technology for users, operators, and manufacturers Through the stage of organizing an important regional event like EVA 2023, this year is the 8th year of the event. There will be an academic seminar iEVTech 2023 on the topic of Shaping the Future of Electric Vehicle Ecosystem to jointly update trends and directions. Including Thailand's opportunities and advantages regarding electric vehicle technology. which we believe will create broad benefits for attendees As well as creating new knowledge about clean energy vehicles for Thai society to achieve our shared future goal of being the center of electric vehicles in the region.
