EXIM Thailand has collaborated with ICBC (Thai) and ICBC Hanoi in providing the credit

According to the plan, solar power generating capacity is targeted to jump from 850 MW in 2020 to 12,000 MW within 10 years. This financial support is in line with
the Thai government’s policy to foster connectivity within ASEAN and expand Thailand’s
economic cooperation with the neighboring countries toward sustainable national and regional
development going forward.
