Bangkok Chain Hospital Public Company Limited (BCH) participates in the Low Emission Support Scheme (LESS) to enhance efficient waste management, advancing toward the Net Zero 2050 goal

Understanding the LESS Project

The Low Emission Support Scheme (LESS) is an initiative that encourages organizations to actively participate in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from their operations in a measurable and verifiable manner. The project focuses on energy reduction, energy efficiency improvement, and effective waste management, with emission reduction outcomes eligible for registration and certification by the Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (TGO).

Reducing Energy Use, Enhancing Efficiency, and Minimizing Environmental Impact

The LESS project promotes organizational improvements in operational processes to optimize energy use, reduce unnecessary resource consumption, and implement systematic waste management. These actions contribute to long-term reductions in greenhouse gas emissions generated from daily operations.

Kasemrad Hospital’s Commitment to Net Zero

Participation in the LESS project by Kasemrad Hospital reflects the organization’s strong commitment to delivering healthcare services responsibly while prioritizing environmental sustainability. The hospital integrates energy reduction measures, energy efficiency enhancements, and effective waste management practices into its operational framework.

A Key Step Toward Net Zero 2050

The LESS project serves as an important mechanism supporting the organization’s journey toward achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This effort goes hand in hand with enhancing healthcare service quality and fostering an environmentally friendly and sustainable healthcare system for the future.
