Risks and Opportunities
Energy, which is required in electrical appliances, transportation, production, services, etc., continues to have a vital role in daily life. The present demand for energy rises due to the growing population and economic expansion, thus resulting in higher energy costs. In addition, non-renewable energy affects climate change and in turn impacts human rights, especially the health and livelihood aspects due to limited food and clean drinking water. However, the Company has prepared to mitigate mentioned challenges through continuous development of clean energy technology with emphasis for renewable energy generation from solar, wind, geothermal, biomass, etc. sources. The Company recognizes water management as a crucial aspect in maintaining communities and businesses in addition to water functioning as a vital future renewable energy source. Therefore, the Company focuses on energy management, renewable energy support to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from business activities and efficient water management to reduce risks associated with violating community right for distribution or access to clean water resources. Other measures established include surrounding community water shortage prevention through prevention of water consumption from water scarcity risk locations, support for efficient water use and conservation projects, and support for projects to mitigate climate change impacts in environmental, societal, governance and economic, and human rights terms.
Management Approach
The Company has continuously implemented energy management at the national level in collaboration all sectors of society through the “7 Go Green” strategy through intensifying the management approach in reducing energy consumption and increasing energy efficiency according to the ISO 14001 environmental management system standard and proactive operations according to stipulated goals. Simultaneously, the Company focuses on supporting projects under the 7 Go Green strategy, which encompasses environmentally friendly store management (Green Store), environmentally friendly logistics and distribution operations (Green Logistic), environmentally friendly packaging management (Green Packaging) and creating environmental protection awareness (Green Living). Alongside the mentioned strategy, the Company emphasizes efficient water resource management throughout the supply chain in tandem with energy management through risk management arising from water scarcity, increasing recycled and reused water proportions, and the promotion of effective water usage within the organization and surrounding communities.
However, the current and continuous crude oil price fluctuation situation due to various factors, which comprise political instability in multiple regions, global currency fluctuations, and world market speculation has resulted in an overall oil price increase in Thailand. The mentioned factors directly affect the cost structure and production returns for entrepreneurs in Thailand. Therefore, the Company has increased the ratio of renewable energy utilization and development of clean energy technologies, which includes continual measures for energy and natural resource conservation, to reduce environmental impact and increase business capabilities concurrently with organizational development.
Environmentally friendly shops, retail centers, distribution center and manufacturing plants (Green Store)
The Company continuously develops energy efficiency and environmentally friendly management through the 7 Go Green strategy in addition to increasing renewable energy consumption proportions for business activities. This measure reduces energy costs and reduces greenhouse gas emissions from business operations. In 2022, projects which support the Green Store strategy includes the following:
