As Thailand races to become the next data center hub, the National Energy Policy Council has approved a direct power purchase agreement (DPPA) scheme with a power generation capacity of 2 gigawatts. The program, part of the government’s “Quick Big Win” policy, will take effect in January 2026.
As interest in data center investments heats up, Thailand’s government on Nov. 10 approved four new projects, with a total value of USD 3.1 billion (100 billion baht).
