A. Project description
A.1. Title of the JCM projectIntroduction of Solar PV Systems on Rooftops of Factory and Office Building
A.2. General description of project and applied technologies and/or measures
The proposed JCM project aims to reduce CO2 emissions by introducing a total of 994.56kW
grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) systems at two sites: 798.72kW on top of the A-14
Factory Building of Siam Steel International Public Company Limited (hereinafter "Site A"),and 195.84kW on top of the Head Quarters of the same company (hereinafter "Site B"). The
solar PV systems replace the grid electricity mostly derived from natural gas. All of the power
generated by the solar PV systems is self-consumed and not fed into the grid. A remotemonitoring system to monitor the performance of the system is also installed at each site.
