On 15 July, EGS-Plan (Bangkok) Co., Ltd., in collaboration with UOB Bank and Coral Life, hosted an industry event at Coral Life Sukhumvit 39 under the theme “Sustainable Buildings, Profitable Future”.

The event explored how building performance, green building certification, and sustainable finance can work together to create both environmental and financial value.

🔹Building Technology & Performance
🔹Green Building Certification & Value
🔹Green Finance & Sustainable Lending
🔹Housing Loan Solutions

A key focus was the connection between green building credentials and access to green loans and sustainability-linked financing. The expert sessions highlighted the importance of establishing measurable sustainability performance and obtaining appropriate certification as part of the financing process.

Representing EGS-Plan, Dr. Robert Himmler, Managing Director, shared insights on Green Building Certification & Value, explaining how certification can provide credible evidence of a building’s sustainability performance and strengthen its positioning for sustainable financing. 🌱✅

The event brought together perspectives from the building, certification, and financial sectors, demonstrating that sustainable financing is not only about the financial product itself, it also depends on having the right technical performance, sustainability criteria, and supporting evidence in place.

At EGS-Plan, we help connect building performance and green certification with financial opportunities, supporting clients in developing projects that are better positioned to access green loans and sustainable financing. 🌿🏦🚀

We are proud to celebrate the successful EDGE Buildings Certification of Bangkok Marriott Hotels Sukhumvit, a Renovation Project supported by EGS-plan as both EDGE Expert and EDGE Auditor.

As Thailand’s first EDGE Preferred Service Provider, EGS-plan is honored to have contributed to this remarkable sustainability achievement.

Technical Highlights Behind the Savings

⚡ High-Efficiency Chiller Plant
The existing hotel is equipped with 3 centrifugal water-cooled chillers, each achieving a COP of 6.39 at full load, contributing to the project’s energy efficiency and overall energy savings of 37.7%.

💧 Water-Efficient Fixtures

Water savings were achieved through the installation of low-flow aerators, particularly at wash basin faucets. The reduced flow rate helped to cut water consumption by nearly half per fixture compared with the original condition, contributing significantly to the 28.3% water savings achieved under EDGE.

🌍 88% Material Savings – Existing Building Renovation

The project achieved 88.0% material savings (or less embodied carbon) largely because this was an existing building renovation project. By retaining and reusing the existing building structure and major building components rather than constructing a new building from scratch, a significant amount of the embodied carbon associated with new construction was avoided.

Achieving EDGE Certification for an existing hotel undergoing renovation presented unique challenges, requiring close coordination, technical assessment, and careful alignment with EDGE requirements across multiple stakeholders.

Through our EDGE consultancy, technical guidance, coordination, and auditing, EGS-plan helped the project successfully meet its sustainability targets and support the ESG ambitions of Bangkok Marriott Hotel Sukhumvit and Benchasiri Park Property Co., Ltd.

The EDGE Final Certificate was presented by Dr. Robert Himmler, Managing Director of EGS-plan, to Mr. Aditya Shamsher Malla, Multi-Property General Manager of Bangkok Marriott Hotel Sukhumvit and Marriott Executive Apartments Bangkok.

Also joining this special milestone were Mr. Umpon Na Sulong, Director of Engineering, and Mr. Apinant Parnsai, Deputy Managing Director of EGS-plan.

👏 Congratulations to the entire Bangkok Marriott Hotel Sukhumvit team!
We are proud to be part of your sustainability journey and to help turn ESG commitments into measurable results.
