Net Zero+ Learning Center Project

AssetWise Public Company Limited, in collaboration with the Bang Khen District Office under the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration, has established the Net Zero+ Learning Center at Suan Ruam Jai Bang Khen (a “15-Minute Park” initiative). The center serves as a pilot community learning space aimed at fostering knowledge, awareness, and public participation in greenhouse gas reduction and sustainable environmental stewardship at the community level. The initiative promotes environmental education and practical engagement, encouraging local residents to actively contribute to climate action and sustainable living.

The Net Zero+ Learning Center is designed as a hands-on learning hub that connects the concept of Net Zero with everyday lifestyles. The center features several key learning areas and activities, including:

• Source waste segregation learning point promoting the journey toward zero waste, using the “Separate–Pour–Invert” concept to encourage proper waste sorting at the source.
• Wastewater treatment system from the Hawker Center’s food outlets, where treated water is reused for watering plants within the park
• Solar cell installation, demonstrating the use of renewable energy to reduce electricity consumption while allowing interested visitors to learn about solar power systems.
• Green spaces and tree planting areas to enhance carbon dioxide absorption, reduce dust pollution, increase urban green areas, and improve the overall environment for the community.
• Rope-based irrigation system, designed to reduce water consumption through efficient water management.ำ
• Solar-powered drinking water station, providing chilled drinking water using electricity generated from solar cells, helping reduce single-use plastic bottles and lowering the cost of access to clean drinking water.
• Eco-composting bins, which convert food waste into organic fertilizer for nourishing plants within the park.

In addition, the Net Zero+ Learning Center incorporates an ESG Coin system as an incentive mechanism to encourage participation in environmental activities, fostering tangible community engagement. The implementation of the Net Zero+ Learning Center Project reflects the commitment of AssetWise Public Company Limited to advancing sustainable urban development through collaboration with government agencies and local communities. The initiative aims to create a long-term balance between urban development, quality of life, and environmental stewardship.
