ASEAN-Japan Fast Track Pitch Event in Thailand

Collaboration Towards a Net Zero Greenhouse Gas Emissions Future

Message from Leadership

PTTEP is actively engaged in the efforts to tackle greenhouse gas emissions and global warming issues and support Thailand’s carbon neutrality goal. We set forth for the company to reach Net Zero Greenhouse Gas Emissions by 2050, through our EP Net Zero 2050 pathway.

Varuna is the subsidiary of PTTEP under AI and Robotics Venture. Varuna serves PTTEP's Net Zero Greenhouse gas Emission with nature based carbon credit solutions. Varuna goal is to supply nature based carbon credit 1 million ton within 2030 from agriculture and forestry sector. We believe Nature-based carbon credits play a crucial role in addressing climate change and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions since it can offer cost-effective solutions compared to some traditional carbon reduction technologies. In addition, carbon farming projects or reforestation projects provide multiple benefits beyond carbon sequestrationin terms of co-benefits for local communities and promoting sustainable development. . Nature-based solutions also have potential to deliver long-term carbon storage, as mature forests and well-preserved ecosystems continue to sequester carbon over time.
