Energy security remains one of the key factors affecting the competitive capability of the Thai industrial sector, in terms of production costs, business continuity, and the transition to an efficient and sustainable energy system. Therefore, FTI emphasizes the importance of linking cooperation with the energy sector and related partners to jointly establish a foundation for the long-term growth of the industrial sector.

On August 18, 2026, Ms. Pimjai Leeissaranukul, President of the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI)
along with Mr. Mongkol HengrojanSophon, Vice President of FTI and President of the Energy Institute for Industry, and Mr. Preeda Watcharathiansakul, Vice President of FTI and President of the Water, Environment and Climate Change Institute, attended the event “Together Evolving with You” on the occasion of the 48th anniversary of PTT Public Company Limited at Crystal Hall, 3rd floor, The Athenee Hotel, Bangkok.

[From Energy Security to Industrial Competitive Capability]

In a context where businesses face both volatility in energy prices, technological changes, and environmental pressures, having a stable and efficient energy system that can support future transitions is not only an issue for the energy sector but a crucial foundation for the Thai economy and manufacturing sector.

Collaboration between the energy sector, the industrial sector, and network partners plays a vital role in balancing energy security, competitive costs, and sustainable development, allowing the Thai industrial sector to adapt and maintain its competitiveness in the long term.

The event was honored by the presence of Mr. Wuttikrai Leeviriyapant, Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Commerce and Chairman of PTT, Mr. Kongkrapan Intarachaya, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of PTT, and Mr. Pakorn Nilprapunt, Deputy Prime Minister.

Under the concept “Together Evolving with You,” this event was held to thank partners and network stakeholders who have supported PTT’s operations over 48 years, while reflecting on the direction of moving forward to ensure energy security alongside economic, social, and environmental development.

For FTI, energy cooperation remains one of the crucial mechanisms to support Thai entrepreneurs, particularly in advocating for industries to access efficient energy while adapting to global changes and progressing towards stable and sustainable growth.
