Deputy PM Ekanit announces a major renewable energy subsidy program offering 50,000 baht per household for rooftop solar installation, funded from a 400-billion-baht government loan. Soft loans from Thai banks (Isan Bank, BAAC) will cover remaining costs, recoverable through electricity savings over 3–4 years. The government will also buy excess solar power under a Net Billing scheme. Rollout targets 500,000–1 million households within one month, with both MEA and PEA overseeing quality assurance and BOI coordinating with local manufacturers to manage supply-chain costs.
