Property Perfect has partnered with 7 organizations to transform Thai Chamber of Commerce Road into a green road, focusing on clean energy to enhance the quality of life. This initiative includes collaboration with EV Lomo, a leading American company, to create electric vehicle charging stations and install EV chargers in every single-family home project. They are also working with companies in the PTT Group, including Arun Plus, EV Me Plus, and Swap & Go, to provide options for purchasing or renting electric vehicles through an application, studying the provision of EV Buses, and battery swap stations for electric motorcycles in the community. Additionally, they have partnered with “Lotus Go Fresh,” which is opening a new environmentally friendly branch, and “SISB International School,” which will contribute with an alternative energy school. The project was launched by Mr. Sujint Chai Chumsak, the Governor of Nonthaburi Province.

Mr. Wongsakorn Prasithwiphat, Managing Director of Property Perfect Public Company Limited, revealed that Thai Chamber of Commerce Road is a 4-kilometer road constructed by the company, connecting Chaiyaphruek Road and Nonthaburi-Bang Bua Thong Bridge Road. This road has an area for project development totaling 1,226 rai and has grown into a large community with residential projects, educational institutions, international schools, community shopping centers, and various businesses. There is also land awaiting development, with potential for continuous expansion in the future. Due to this rapid growth, the company aims to promote Thai Chamber of Commerce Road as a road focused on clean energy to create a better quality of life for the community.

“We have collaborated with leading organizations to promote clean energy on Thai Chamber of Commerce Road, ensuring accessibility for everyone. We are preparing to facilitate electric vehicle use by establishing charging stations in communal areas and within the community. We will install EV Charger Home Boxes in every single-family home project across all price ranges, and we are studying the provision of EV Buses and battery swap stations for electric motorcycles to serve the community. We have also received cooperation from businesses located along this road that operate in an environmentally friendly manner, including plans to install electric vehicle chargers at Nonthaburi government offices to encourage more people to adopt clean energy,”

Regarding the collaboration with companies in the PTT Group, Mr. Charn Kulpathanirun, Head of 2 Wheel and Bus Business Development at Arun Plus Co., Ltd., stated that Arun Plus operates in the EV Value Chain to support the expansion of the PTT Group's electric vehicle business. The Electric Bus or E-Bus is one of the operations under development to provide services at reasonable prices and with efficiency. Currently, Arun Plus offers Shuttle E-Bus services for employees within the PTT Group and plans to offer E-Bus options for external customers to purchase or rent in various formats, expected to be available by mid-2022. In this collaboration, Property Perfect and Arun Plus will discuss developing E-Bus services together to allow the community on Thai Chamber of Commerce Road to experience Arun Plus's E-Bus, which utilizes clean energy technology, contributing to the development of this green community.

 

Ms. Suwitcha Sudjai, CEO and Managing Director of EV Me Plus Co., Ltd., stated that EV Me Plus, a startup within the PTT Group, aims to provide a more convenient experience for EV ownership through the EVme application, which is the first and only full-service EV digital platform in Thailand. Users can choose to purchase or rent EVs at special prices, with a variety of models and brands available, as well as access to information on charging station locations nationwide. Currently, EVme is in the testing phase and will be fully operational in early 2022. For Property Perfect's project on “Thai Chamber of Commerce Road,” which has already prepared the infrastructure for electric vehicle use, EV Me Plus will offer trial EV services at special prices for residents before they decide to purchase, promoting the use of clean energy through EVs.

Ms. Awee Masiri Sangthaksin, Managing Director of Swap & Go Co., Ltd., mentioned that Swap & Go is another company in the PTT Group that provides a battery swap platform for electric motorcycle users without waiting to charge.
