Final remarks

Thailand has launched EEDP plan with clear quantified target in 2030 (25% EI reduction)

Some EE mechanism has been done in the pass

Effective mechanisms are promoted including regulation and incentive in order to meet EEDP target

Evaluation and analysis of implementations are on the way
