On 23 December, Acting Deputy Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation (MHESI), presided over the opening of the academic conference “Driving the Green University Policy Toward a Sustainable University.” The conference brought together leading experts, university administrators, and representatives from both public and private higher education institutions nationwide.
As part of the conference program, Mr. Apinant Parnsai, Deputy Managing Director of EGS-plan (Bangkok) Co., Ltd., was invited as a speaker to share EGS-plan’s experience with the green building consulting of the new extension building of the RIS Swiss Section – Deutschsprachige Schule Bangkok School. The project is currently pursuing a DGNB Gold Certification, with EGS-plan serving as the project’s sustainability consultant. The DGNB system is provided by the DGNB German Sustainable Building Council and is one of the most advanced green building certification systems which holistically considers the environmental, economic, and human quality of buildings. EGS-plan has supported the project through integrated energy concept development, building performance simulations, and commissioning management, as well as Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) enhancement to create optimal learning conditions for students and teachers. This project demonstrates how high-performance building design can positively impact learning environments while delivering measurable sustainability outcomes.
The RIS Swiss Section – Deutschsprachige Schule Bangkok project is widely recognized as a strong benchmark for future Green University and sustainable education developments in Thailand, reinforcing EGS-plan’s commitment to advancing sustainable, healthy, and future-ready campuses.
