The Thailand Taxonomy Phase 2 covers the agriculture, construction and real estate,
manufacturing, and waste management sectors, which are considered high greenhouse
gas-emitting sectors. This phase is a continuation of Phase 1, which focused on 
the energy and transportation sectors. The development of Phase 2 involved stakeholder
consultations that began in February 2024, followed by a public consultation from
October 28, 2024, to January 10, 2025.

Throughout the consultation, the Board received valuable comments and suggestions
from various stakeholders, including government agencies, private sector, civil 
society, academia, and international organizations. Most of the feedbacks agreed
in principles, with some offering suggestions—such as incorporating additional environmental
standards or certification schemes, as well as practices suitable for the Thai context
in each economic sector. These inputs were carefully considered and integrated in
the final Thailand Taxonomy Phase 2, which can be downloaded from May 27, 2025 onwards
via the websites of DCCE, BOT, SEC, and SET, and other Board members. Other access
channels will be announced in the future.

In addition, the Board will co-organize a seminar on “Thailand Taxonomy 2.0: Driving
the Thai Economy towards sustainability” on May 27, 2025, from 1.30 – 4.00 p.m..
This seminar aims to promote the understanding of the concept and the use of Thailand
Taxonomy as a reference tool for defining and classifying environmentally sustainable
activities. The event will be livestreamed via the official Facebook pages of DCCE,
BOT, SEC, and SET.
