Therefore, it is expected that this year’s earnings will continue to grow well.
While looking at the 70 satang/unit drop in Ft, there will be little impact on margin as the Ft drop is in line with the downward energy trend. Whether it’s gas or coal, together with the Ft that is tied to industrial customers that the company has sold electricity to account for about 30% of the portfolio, and the rest will be sold according to the power purchase agreement type SPP, IPP provides some degree of mitigation.

By following the news, it was found that the government may not have a policy to just reduce electricity bills. But looking at the cost structure of natural gas prices that will be used to generate electricity, how should it be? which has many options The way to get gas From what source does it come in to calculate the cost of electricity generation? which the company sees as this will reduce the whole structure By reducing both the cost of energy prices and the reduced FT, which can meet the needs together
At present, the company is also focusing on investments in planned development projects such as SPP projects, Energy Recovery Unit (ERU) and offshore wind power projects in Taiwan. and 4 new Avada power plant projects under development.
