Bio-innovation projects are developed through JV structures, pilot partnerships, or spin-off entities
Core energy SPVs are not exposed to technology or market risk from innovation activities
Capital deployment is stage-gated, milestone-based, and often supported by grants, concessional funding, or strategic partners
We ensure that DFIs and Climate VCs participating in infrastructure assets retain stable risk-return profiles, while optional participation in bio-innovation is offered separately.
Phase 6 offers:
Upside optionality, not dependency — innovation revenues complement, but do not underpin, core returns
Entry into high-growth bio-economy sectors with proven demand drivers (food security, climate materials, sustainable chemicals)
Strong policy alignment with BCG, climate-adaptation finance, and food-system resilience
Potential for strategic exits, licensing, or partnerships with global food, biotech, and materials companies
Phase 6 completes REpow’s evolution:
Phases 1–4: Bankable renewable power, fuels, and industrial decarbonization
Phase 5: Carbon circularity through CCU, green fuels, and algae systems
Phase 6: Bio-innovation as a scalable, diversified value-creation layer
Together, these phases position REpow not only as a renewable-energy developer, but as a long-term platform for climate-aligned industrial and biological innovation in Thailand.
