Australia showcases renewable energy innovations at Sustainability Expo 2026 in Bangkok

BANGKOK – Australia is showcasing its renewable energy technologies and green economy expertise at Sustainability Expo 2026 (SX2026) in Bangkok, bringing together 19 Australian organisations to explore opportunities for cooperation with Thailand and Southeast Asia.

The exhibition, held at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Centre from 6 to 15 November, is described as Southeast Asia’s largest sustainability expo.

The Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade), in partnership with the Smart Energy Council, Renewable Energy Council Asia-Pacific and Global Victoria, is leading a green economy delegation representing businesses, universities and organisations specialising in renewable energy, environmental technologies and sustainable development.

Australian Ambassador to Thailand Pablo Kang said the event marked Australia’s third consecutive year of participation, reflecting growing cooperation between the two countries on clean energy.

“Australia and Thailand share the same net-zero goal and want to increase our use of renewable energy,” Kang said.

He highlighted Australia’s experience in rooftop solar, battery energy storage and solar power forecasting as areas of expertise being presented to visitors.

“Australia is also working with Thailand to accelerate our transition to renewable energy transition through technical exchanges and capability development,” he said.

Exploring the future of clean energy

Under the theme “Energy that flows both ways”, the Australian Pavilion introduces visitors to technologies that allow households and communities to generate, store and share renewable electricity.

Interactive displays explain how rooftop solar has become one of Australia’s largest sources of electricity, while demonstrations allow visitors to track energy sources in real time and explore how energy systems could develop in the future.

A diorama illustrates how a smart community can produce and store clean electricity before sharing it with neighbouring households.

The pavilion was developed with support from Partnerships for Infrastructure, an Australian Government initiative promoting sustainable and inclusive infrastructure development across Southeast Asia.

Nineteen organisations join Australian delegation

The Australian delegation includes Aeterna Health, Alluvium Group, Climate Change Response, Earth Systems, Electrifying Australia, Food Recycle International, Green Eco Technologies, Green Gold Energy, Meteocontrol Australia, MLB Industrial, Murdoch University, Platform Zero, PMV Training, Regain Services, Retragreen, Sandford Electrical, Terranexx, Tessele Consultants and the University of New South Wales.

The Australian Pavilion is located in the International Pavilion Zone on the ground floor of the Queen Sirikit National Convention Centre and is open daily from 10.00 to 18.00 throughout the expo.

Visitors can also participate in a quiz for a chance to win a limited-edition Australian Embassy BTS Rabbit Card and other prizes.
