TCMA showcases one-year progress of the ‘SARABURI SANDBOX’ at COP29, uniting local and global stakeholders to accelerate the joint actions, combining ‘policy-technology-funding-governance’ to increase Thailand opportunities to access green funding towards Net Zero 2050
BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 4 December 2024 – Dr. Chana Poomee, Chairman of Thai Cement Manufacturers Association (TCMA), revealed that TCMA has been participating in COP for the third consecutive year, including COP29 hosted by the Republic of Azerbaijan from November 11–22, 2024, in Baku. The conference revolved around the theme In Solidarity for a Green World. Thailand, represented by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, showcased its achievements at the Thailand Pavilion, covering key areas: climate policy, climate technology, climate action, and climate finance.
At COP29, TCMA, in collaboration with Department of Climate Change and Environment (DCCE), Global Cement and Concrete Association (GCCA), and UNIDO, presented lessons learned from the innovation ecosystem within the ‘SARABURI SANDBOX.’ Highlighting its one-year progress, TCMA conducted the seminar ‘SARABURI SANDBOX: Leading Thailand’s Pathway to a Low-Carbon City’ at the Thailand Pavilion and the GCCA Pavilion, demonstrating its pivotal role in transitioning Thailand’s industrial sector to a competitive and sustainable low-carbon economy.
Over the past year, the ‘SARABURI SANDBOX’ has achieved significant milestones through a Public-Private-People Partnership (PPP) thanks to the cooperation between TCMA and Saraburi Province led by the Governor of Saraburi, and domestic and international agencies. Some key successes include: 1) over 80% of construction projects in Saraburi now using hydraulic cement 2) the cement industry increasing its use of alternative fuels and renewable energy to 26% 3) a pilot project for cultivating energy crops, such as Napier grass, as alternative fuels for the cement industry 4) the installation of a solar carport with a renewable energy system at Saraburi City Hall 5) community waste management initiatives led by local administrative organizations, and 6) community forest projects to expand green areas across 38 locations.
The project has also attracted international collaboration. Princeton University has studied the province’s renewable energy potential to inform future implementation plans while GCCA facilitates global knowledge sharing and policy alignment to drive more projects in different aspects. These efforts are integral to implementing the Thailand 2050 Net Zero Cement and Concrete Roadmap and securing green funding for action-oriented projects.

“Made in Binzhou” Heads to Tianzhou-10 Cargo Spacecraft——Binzhou Sci-Tech Power Embarks on a Hardcore Space Mission
This initiative is a collaborative effort involving the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS), the National Space Science Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Binzhou Weiqiao UCAS High Technology Research Institute. The successful launch marks a historic “zero-to-one” breakthrough, representing the first time private sci-tech forces from Binzhou and indeed Shandong province have reached space. It also stands as China’s first in-space experiment to study the solidification of lightweight high-entropy alloys under the dual-field coupling of “microgravity and rotating magnetic fields.”
As a national-level “space laboratory,” the manned space station hosts world-class research facilities and serves as a core platform for disruptive innovation in new materials. This successful deployment not only highlights the institute’s cutting-edge research capabilities but also signifies a deep integration between corporate scientific research and national aerospace engineering. Looking ahead, the institute will continue its deep dive into frontier fields such as space materials and lightweight alloys. By strengthening collaborative innovation across industry, academia, and research, they aim to empower the upgrading of the new materials industry with technological innovation, contributing both wisdom and strength to the development of China’s manned space program and the cultivation of new quality productive forces.
