IMPACT is dedicated to adhering to the Thailand Sustainable Event Management Standard

Ms. Jintana Phongpakdee, Director of Corporate Communications, IMPACT Exhibition Management Co., Ltd., the operator of IMPACT Exhibition and Convention Center, Muang Thong Thani, emphasized the company's strong commitment to the Thailand Sustainable Event Management Standard (TSEMS). As a key player in the MICE industry, IMPACT prioritizes raising awareness among executives and employees about these guidelines in a concrete manner. As a result, sustainable development projects in various aspects are proposed each year.

IMPACT has initiated a variety of projects that address social, economic, and environmental concerns, such as Clean Energy, Electric Vehicle Charging Station, Waste Separation, Plastic Use Reduction, Wastewater Management within Muang Thong Thani, Green Procurement, Zero Waste, IMPACT Farm, Employment Support Project for Students and People in the Community, Kla MICE, IMPACT Touching Hearts Sharing Love, Muang Thong Thani's Dog Community, Muang Thong Thani Community Bike Patrol, and Hotel Sustainable Campaign in IMPACT hotels (Novotel Bangkok IMPACT and ibis Bangkok IMPACT).

"In addition to proposing new projects each year, we actively monitor the success of our existing projects, many of which have yielded highly satisfactory results. These projects not only reduce environmental impacts but also provide significant social and economic benefits, including the Energy Security Policy, and Energy Conservation Project where IMPACT's engineering team installed solar rooftops to transform sunlight into electrical energy, which helps save electricity costs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The solar panel system is also considered a clean and sustainable energy alternative."

Mr. Wichai Bunpaburut, Director of Facility Management, noted that IMPACT had solar rooftops installed in 3 main areas: 1.) The roof of the IMPACT Challenger building with a generation capacity of 593.64 kilowatts 2.) The roof of the P2 parking garage with a generation capacity of 316.20 kilowatts 3.) The roof of the P3 parking garage with a generation capacity of 153 kilowatts. Together, these installations generate a total electricity generation of approximately 1.1 kilowatts each year. To further increase electricity generation, a plan was made to install additional solar panels on the other side of the IMPACT Challenger building's roof.

As part of the Energy Conservation Project, IMPACT has instilled values of energy consumption mindfulness among employees and actively encouraged customers to participate in conservation efforts to help reduce the impact of global warming. IMPACT also set a goal to reduce energy consumption in the exhibition area. In 2024, IMPACT set a target to achieve energy conservation in the exhibition area by 3% (compared to the data in 2023). According to the report of the first 8 months (January-August 2024), IMPACT managed to reduce the energy consumption in the exhibition area by 606,376 kilowatt-hours, resulting in cost savings of 2,831,779 baht. This also led to a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 340,177 kg CO2e, which is equivalent to the energy consumption of 1,810 two-story houses, each occupying an area of 16 square wa. This accomplishment results from the installation of solar panels, the use of LED light bulbs in various buildings and function rooms, the implementation of air conditioning system control (BBP), the replacement of air curtains, and the adjustment of optimal temperature settings for different event venues.
