TotalEnergies ENEOS has completed a 1.8 megawatt-peak (MWp) floating solar photovoltaic (PV) system in Thailand, designed in partnership with S. Kijchai Enterprise, a company that manufactures wood-based panels. This project marks TotalEnergies ENEOS’s first floating solar PV installation in the Asia Pacific region and the second PV system completed for S. Kijchai within four years.
The new floating solar system consists of over 3,000 installed modules and is expected to generate around 2,650 megawatt-hours (MWh) of renewable electricity annually. By offsetting traditional energy use, it reduces S. Kijchai’s carbon footprint by about 1,125 tons of CO₂ emissions each year.
This installation operates under a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) where TotalEnergies ENEOS is responsible for fully funding, installing, and maintaining the system over the next 12 years. Under this model, S. Kijchai will pay only for the electricity generated, with no upfront investment required, resulting in cost savings for the company.
In addition to the Thailand floating PV system, TotalEnergies has pursued multiple renewable energy projects worldwide:
Battery Energy Storage in Belgium: TotalEnergies is constructing a battery energy storage system with a capacity of 25 MW and 75 MWh at its depot in Feluy, Belgium. This project, scheduled for completion by late 2025, will bring the company’s Belgian storage capacity to 50 MW / 150 MWh.
Battery Storage in Germany: In July 2024, TotalEnergies launched a 100 MW/200 MWh battery storage project in Dahlem, North Rhine-Westphalia. This facility, managed by Kyon Energy, is expected to start operations in 2026.
Asia-Pacific Renewable Projects: In partnership with Gentari Renewables, TotalEnergies is developing clean energy projects across the Asia-Pacific, focusing on solar and wind projects. This partnership supports both companies’ goals of accelerating renewable energy in the region. Onshore Renewable Projects with European Energy: TotalEnergies and European Energy are jointly developing at least 4 GW of onshore renewable projects across multiple locations.
