Oil and gas giant PTT Plc is showcasing its alternative energy and technologies related to electric vehicles at an auto fair being held at the Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Centre in Bang Na.
Auttapol Rerkpiboon, PTT president and CEO, said on Wednesday that the company and its subsidiaries, including Arun Plus and PTT Oil and Retail Business Plc, are showcasing their technologies for alternative energy at the Fast Auto Show Thailand and EV Expo 2023.
The expo is being held over 20,000 square metres of space at Bitec Bang Na from Wednesday to Sunday.
