Question 1

What are the BOI conditions for solar?

Accepted Answer

Solar power generation falls under BOI Activity 7.1. Requirements include being a Thai-registered legal entity with at least 1 million THB capital. Benefits depend on location — EEC zones get maximum privileges. CapSolar prepares BOI documents free for customers.

Question 2

Can PPA users get tax benefits?

Accepted Answer

PPA does not receive accelerated depreciation (as you don't own the system), but PPA payments are tax-deductible business expenses. You may also receive carbon credits depending on contract terms, plus immediate savings from lower electricity rates.

Question 3

Can carbon credits actually be sold? To whom?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! T-VER carbon credits are traded on FTIX (Thailand Carbon Neutral Network) or sold directly to companies wanting to offset carbon, such as SET-listed companies with Net Zero targets. Current average price is 120-200 THB/ton CO₂.

Question 4

What is the ESCO Fund? Is it hard to apply?

Accepted Answer

ESCO Fund is managed by DEDE (Department of Alternative Energy Development). It provides investment support or loan guarantees for renewable energy projects up to 50M THB. Application requires a feasibility study — CapSolar provides this free with installation services.
