EEP Group Moves Forward in Educating Local Administrative Executives Nationwide on Comprehensive Waste Management and Eco-Friendly Energy Conversion

On July 20, 2023, at the Education Division Conference Room of Phraeksa Mai Town Municipality in Samut Prakan Province, EEP Group conducted a training session for 89 local administrative executives from across the country. This initiative aimed to provide in-depth knowledge on comprehensive community waste management and converting waste into environmentally friendly electricity. The training emphasized waste separation at the source and maximizing waste utilization to serve as a model for effective waste management in local areas.

Ms. Chonlada Chitanong, Public Relations and Corporate Activities Manager of Eastern Energy Plus Group Co., Ltd. (EEP Group), served as the keynote speaker. The attendees were undergoing training on disaster prevention and mitigation under the Local Director Training Program, organized by the Institute for Personnel Development in Disaster Prevention and Mitigation.

The session covered key aspects of integrated waste management, particularly the 3Rs principles: Reduce (minimizing waste generation), Reuse (extending the lifecycle of materials to delay waste accumulation), and Recycle (transforming waste into new products). The training introduced EEP’s simplified waste segregation method, which involves separating wet and dry waste to streamline final waste disposal.

This initiative aligns with the policy of Mr. Abinash Magi, CEO of Eastern Energy Plus Group Co., Ltd. (EEP Group), who envisions educating the people of Samut Prakan on waste segregation at home and achieving Zero Waste Management, ultimately transforming the province into a waste-free region.

Additionally, the training session highlighted innovative waste repurposing techniques. The instructors demonstrated how certain dry waste materials—such as glass bottles, aluminum cans, and wood scraps—can be repurposed into Keycone garden beds. They also introduced the Food Waste Garden, created from repurposed plastic water tanks, for growing household vegetables. Furthermore, participants learned how to convert food waste into organic fertilizer, promoting sustainable home gardening and reducing household food expenses.

The event was inaugurated by Mr. Amnuay Boonriew, Mayor of Phraeksa Mai Town Municipality, along with his executive team. The session received enthusiastic engagement from attendees, who expressed interest in applying the acquired knowledge to improve waste segregation and utilize waste efficiently in their daily lives.
