We focus not only on strong financial performance, but also strengthening surrounding communities and the society, as well as taking good care of the environment. At the same time, we adhere to corporate governance, transparency, and accountability. These are the key factors that enable us to add value to all our stakeholders in the 8 countries we are operating in. Looking ahead, EGCO Group will continue to grow our business to support the energy transition and join the world in driving the overall power generation and energy industry towards a low-carbon society."

The company also implements such projects through the Thai Conservation of Forest Foundation. In addition, transparent, equal, and fair disclosure of information has enabled all its stakeholders to closely monitor and follow up on the company's operations.
