Energy and Renewable Energy Profession

The Energy and Renewable Energy Industry is a vital sector that plays a crucial role in driving the economic growth and development of other industries within the country. Ensuring energy security requires specialized professionals with expertise in this field, as any operational errors can lead to national-level damage. Moreover, personnel involved in the energy sector must possess a high level of expertise in their work and continuously update their knowledge to keep up with the ever-evolving technology. The education sector must prepare students with the relevant knowledge and skills to meet the needs of employers. Additionally, private sector companies in Thailand have expanded their investments abroad, particularly in ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) member countries, where they hire both Thai and foreign workers. However, there are currently no regulations or standards for determining wages for these international collaborations. The Occupational Standards and Professional Qualification for the Energy and Renewable Energy Profession will outline the scope of roles within the energy and renewable energy sectors. This will help set wage standards for workers and consolidate the necessary knowledge and skills for work that meets internationally recognized standards. This will also systematically develop the workforce's competencies and support the movement of labor across ASEAN member countries under the Professional Qualification system.
