Challenges and Opportunities
Sikarin Public Company Limited recognizes the impacts of climate change on energy, water, and waste management within hospital operations. Rising patient volumes are driving higher energy demands, while natural disaster risks and increasingly stringent environmental regulations require the Company to adapt and align with sustainability standards. At the same time, Sikarin sees opportunities to integrate renewable energy, eco-friendly technologies, and digital systems to enhance resource efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. Collaborations with public and private sectors are also crucial for developing sustainable initiatives and shaping the future of green hospitals.
Management Approach and Value Creation
To effectively address the impacts of climate change, Sikarin Public Company Limited has developed comprehensive strategies and measures encompassing greenhouse gas reduction, renewable energy adoption, efficient resource management, and resilient infrastructure development to mitigate disaster risks. Furthermore, the Company recognizes the pivotal role of businesses in driving sustainability through engagement with communities and relevant stakeholders, aiming to create operational models that foster macro-level change. These efforts not only minimize environmental impacts but also enhance the Company’s capacity for stable and sustainable growth. Key initiatives include:
Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction:
Sikarin has installed solar rooftop systems to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and upgraded HVAC systems and medical equipment for greater energy efficiency.
Efficient Energy and Resource Management:
The Company continually monitors and reports on energy usage. In 2024, total electricity consumption was 16,529,539 kWh, an increase from 2023 due to a higher number of patients. Nevertheless, Sikarin implemented measures to optimize energy use, such as adopting LED lighting systems and deploying smart energy management technologies.
Natural Disaster Risk Mitigation:
Sikarin has undertaken infrastructure upgrades to mitigate flood risks in critical hospital areas and enhanced its emergency response systems to ensure continuous healthcare services under all circumstances.
Collaboration for Sustainability:
The Company has engaged in external environmental initiatives such as mangrove reforestation projects and the “Low Carbon Run Challenge,” promoting employee and community participation in environmental conservation efforts.
Advancing Toward a Safe and Sustainable Future
Sikarin Public Company Limited plans to expand its renewable energy initiatives by increasing solar panel installations across more hospital buildings and developing energy storage technologies to maximize the use of clean energy. Plans are also underway to promote the use of electric vehicles (EVs) within hospital premises and install EV charging stations, supporting the reduction of fossil fuel consumption. The Company will further advance energy and resource management through smart systems and IoT technologies to enable real-time monitoring and optimization. Sikarin is also strengthening infrastructure resilience against natural disasters and developing a Climate Emergency Response Plan to better manage unforeseen situations. In addition, employee and community engagement will be enhanced through training programs and collaborations with external organizations to drive sustainability projects.
These efforts will support Sikarin’s target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 3% by 2030 and build a strong foundation for long-term, sustainable growth.
