The Department of Alternative Energy Development and Efficiency, Ministry of Energy and the European Union Delegation to Thailand will continue their joint efforts to enhance renewable energy development with a two-day seminar titled “Renewable Energy Technology Implementation in Thailand: Experience Transfer from Europe”.

Scheduled to be held at Vimarnsuriya Room, Dusit Thani Hotel, Bangkok on 4 - 5 October 2012 from 8:00am to 4:30pm, this seminar is the second event in a series of seminars and workshops aiming to share experience and develop expertise of Thai stakeholders in renewable energy, energy efficiency development, and related issues.
