• Lower Carbon Biogas Rubber Project: Chevron in collaboration with Prince of Songkla University’s Energy Systems Research Institute (PERIN), successfully introduced biogas technology, solar energy systems and zero waste model to local rubber production communities. Converting wastewater into biogas for drying rubber sheets has resulted in “low-carbon smoked rubber sheets,” effectively addressing odor and wastewater issues from traditional wood-smoke drying methods among rubber farmers in Songkhla Province. By reducing wood usage by 30%, Yung Thong Cooperative saves approximately 130,000–180,000 baht per year, reducing carbon emissions by 425 tons per year, or 31%
• Foster Future Forests Project: The project aims to restore 100 rai of the urban mangrove forests at Phra Chedi Klang Nam, Mueang District, Rayong Province.
