EGCO Engineering and Service joins forces with B.Grimm Power Service (Laem Chabang) to jointly invest in the development “Solar panel testing machine” testing service by KMUTT.

B.Grimm Power Service (Laem Chabang), a subsidiary of B.Grimm Power Public Company Limited or BGRIM (Listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand, abbreviated BGRIM.), is one of the country’s largest pioneers in the private power generation industry. Signed an agreement between shareholders with EGCO Engineering and Service Company and B.Grimm Power Service (Laem Chabang) to jointly invest in developing a solar panel testing machine. Responding to the trend of producing electricity from solar energy for various organizations. which is more popular nowadays.

          EGCO Engineering and Service Company Limited said that with the company’s commitment to providing engineering services related to the operation and maintenance of power plants. including industrial sectors with international standard quality We are very pleased to join in signing the memorandum of understanding (MOU) to develop a solar panel tester. By providing support for the full use of solar panels and supporting equipment related to development. Such as spare equipment Testing tools or software Personnel with expertise in joint operations This cooperation will develop innovation and engineering knowledge to support and expand businesses to support the business operations of the EGCO Group. including enhancing value, it also increases the potential and competitive advantage of all partners.

Mr. Don Thayathan, Executive Vice President – Customer Relations and Power Plant Operations 2, B.Grimm Power Public Company Limited, said that at present the use of renewable energy has received great attention from both industrial and household users a lot. This can be seen from the increase in the number of solar panel installations in both industrial and industrial plants. industrial estate Real estate business group, etc. Because it is a solution to the efficient use of alternative energy in terms of managing the cost of using electricity by being able to control the amount of use appropriately. It is also a response to business operations under the framework of sustainable development that considers environmental impacts. B.Grimm is always committed to developing the use of alternative energy. Enhancing the potential of using solar panels to answer customer needs in terms of efficient use of alternative energy.

At present, if we consider the installation of solar panels inside, they are more than 2 meters long, which is beyond what the solar panel testing machines at the CES Solar Cells Testing Center (CSSC) can support. Therefore, it is the origin of the cooperation of partners in this project to jointly invest and develop a solar panel tester. It is considered the only solar panel testing machine in Thailand and neighboring countries. By B.Grimm Ready to support investment and purchase of testing tools to enhance operations to achieve project goals.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Chakrit Techaapaikhun, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), said KMUTT is considered an educational institution that always gives importance to the development and promotion of technology. This can be seen in academic work and the production of various innovations. To meet the needs of the business and industrial sectors. For this cooperation, KMUTT has prepared experienced faculty and students to participate in the project. We have prepared a system for operating and maintaining the test equipment. The process of checking usage, which has been certified to ISO/IEC17025 testing laboratory standards, is the use of the institute’s expertise to develop the use of alternative energy to be more quality and efficient. It also creates experience in implementing projects with leading agencies, which will develop the personnel of the KMUTT as well.

For this cooperation in addition to investing in a solar panel tester, the three organizations will jointly market and promote to relevant parties that services and testing can be performed at the CSSC test center. The solar panel tester will be installed at the CSSC test center with the test center operator. Testing and maintenance are performed by CSSC. (The operators and laboratories of the CSSC testing center are internationally accredited.) The entire cooperation has a duration of 10 years.

This is due to the changing pattern of energy demand. As a result, nowadays many organizations There is a policy to reduce the production of carbon dioxide in the long term. and increasingly turning to alternative energy to answer the problem of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions or Net-Zero Carbon Emissions, one of the renewable energy sources that are widely popular is the production of solar energy installed on the roof (Solar Rooftop) due to the installation solar panels. Cellular can be done at both household and industrial levels. As a result, the number of solar panel manufacturers continues to increase. including new technologies of solar panels that have developed more Therefore, inspecting the solar panels is important. To build confidence among organizations and people who want to install solar panels. Both in safety and efficiency This will lead to greater use of renewable energy in the country overall in the future.
