The National Energy Technology Center (ENTEC), under the National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA), and Khon Kaen University (KKU) co-hosted the seminar “Advanced H2 Training and Networking (Northeast): Building a Hydrogen Network for the Energy of the Future” on 10 November 2026 at the Avani Khon Kaen Hotel & Convention Centre. The seminar brought together researchers, universities, industry and relevant agencies to share advances in hydrogen technology and build collaboration in Northeast Thailand.
ENTEC was represented by Dr. Visarn Lilavivat and Dr. Lily Eurwilaichitr, together with NSTDA policy researchers Ms. Dararat Rajadanuraks and Dr. Bancha Dokmai and members of the Low Carbon Energy Research Group. They were joined by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Konlayutt Punyawudho, Deputy Director of the Multidisciplinary Research Institute, Chiang Mai University, and by Prof. Dr. Alissara Reungsang, Head of the Research Group for Development of Microbial Hydrogen Production Process from Biomass, Faculty of Technology, who represented KKU.
Sessions covered Hydrogen for Industrial Decarbonization; Hydrogen Utilization: Advances in Materials and System Integration; Low-Carbon Hydrogen Standards; Biohydrogen Production; and Photocatalysts for Hydrogen Production.
The event reflects the shared commitment of ENTEC (NSTDA) and KKU to building a regional hydrogen research network, moving research into practical use, and supporting Thailand’s transition to a low-carbon society.
