Building Energy Code (BEC)

Time toChange !!

• Considering energy efficiency inevery system• Using high efficiency equipment• Low energy expenses

Exiting Building• No energy conservation design• Using low efficiency equipment• Hard for retrofitting• High energy expenses

BEC Roadmap 2015-2036
1. Enforcement of the
Ministerial Regulation

2. Supporting new energy
conservation building• Enforcement BEC standard• Energy building labels• Development of BEC auditor• Financial incentives, fortraining
example government funds• Tightening BEC standard
or low interest personal loans
 9 types of new buildings
 To support the new projects
 total area ≥ 2,000 m2
receive formal green building In 2019, Starting enforce withcertification as LEED, TREES.
new buildings area ≥ 10,000 m2
 Down to small size in 3 years

112E Building Center

2010-2018• To provide information to any government sectors, state enterprises, or projectstakeholders regarding the evaluation procedures of building plans for energy
conservation as required by the Ministerial Regulation• To create collaborative networks between the government and private sectors inorder to lay the foundation of energy conservation building design

Evaluation of energy conservation building(2009 – 2015 = 621 building drawing plans)

BEC’s auditor training 2,500 persons(Architect, Engineer and Building Owner etc.)

MOU municipalities and universities(Bangkok, Chiangmai, Pattaya etc.) (KU, TU, CMU, KMITL etc.)

Private network and professional associations(Engineering institute, Siamese Architects) (SCG, SANSIRI, LPN)

Develop of prototypes for standard government
conservation building drawing plans
