Bangkok, Thailand, September 20, 2023- Delta Electronics (Thailand) PCL. hosted 30 Thai students from the CHOICEISYOURS 2023 project to learn about the company’s green building solutions and ESG activities at the company headquarters in Bangpoo Industrial Estate. This year, Delta joined the Chaipattana Foundation, Microsoft Thailand, SCG, Central Group, and Noble Development to support the student competition and collaborative educational development program initiated by BMW Group Thailand. The program aims to encourage Thai students to showcase their creativity in designing project ideas based on the "Circular Economy" concept (REduce, REuse, REthink, and Recycle) which helps make a constructive contribution to society and the environment.
Ms. Aonthip Aorthong, Delta Thailand Sustainable Development Manager, welcomed the delegation and gave an overview of the company’s ESG strategy and actions. “Delta is thrilled to support this meaningful initiative led by BMW Group Thailand. We welcome students from top universities to our head office and factory which is also LEED Gold-certified green building. As a global corporate citizen, we actively mentor local talents by demonstrating the real-life applications and impact of energy saving on our communities. I hope today’s visit will inspire the new generation to take action for Net-Zero by showing just how many of Delta’s green solutions are already significantly reducing our carbon footprint today,” she said.
The delegation joined a tour of Delta’s energy-efficient solutions around the building including efficient production lines, energy management systems and solar rooftop. At the company showroom, Mr. Kasemson Kreuatorn, Delta Senior Regional Manager for Industrial Automation, presented the broad range of energy-efficient products and solutions produced in Thailand for global customers or implemented for the local market. These include energy-efficient power products for industry, data center and telecom applications; EV parts, EV chargers, DC fans and industrial automation devices and systems.
The site visit closed with an open discussion and Q&A session between students and their Delta HR managers. Each interactive plant tour is designed to be an active community-based learning experience for students to learn about careers and industries that make an impact on society.
The CHOICEISYOURS 2023 initiative is designed to enhance innovative thinking among the young generation of Thailand so that they can transform their ideas into reality for environmental and economic development. The 2023 competition topic is “Circularity for the Community”, and students must propose ideas that integrate the concept of circularity in solving an environmental problem or a sustainability issue for a specific community.
