In partnership with King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang (KMITL) and Vernier Thai, AESEA successfully held the inaugural KidWind Thailand regional competition in Bangkok on August 2, 2025, demonstrating Thailand's potential in renewable-energy education. The competition attracted more than 800 student participants; within 10 minutes of registration opening, 70 teams had signed up, with 20 teams ultimately advancing to the finals. The electric atmosphere on site fully showcased the innovation and team spirit of young students.
Contestants were required to design small wind turbines and test them in a wind tunnel, with electrical energy output over 30 seconds as the primary scoring criterion, judged alongside creativity, structural stability, and energy conversion efficiency. Thai students' innovative designs were stunning — some entries surpassed past performances at the Asian and World championships in both creativity and efficiency, reflecting the younger generation's passion and potential for sustainable energy.
AESEA Chairman Professor Chou Chien-heng remarked: "The creativity and passion of Thai students are truly impressive, showing the limitless possibilities of green-energy education." The top six teams will represent Thailand at the KidWind Challenge in Asia on November 1–2, 2025, where they will exchange ideas with teams from across Asia and broaden their international horizons.
The Association emphasized that the success of the Thailand regional owes much to the collaboration with KMITL and other partners, marking a milestone in Taiwan–Thailand cooperation on green-energy education. Through shared technology and resources, both sides are taking renewable-energy education to a new level. Upholding its mission of inspiring green-energy innovation among Asia-Pacific youth, AESEA will continue working with partners across the region to cultivate creative, globally minded energy talent and contribute to a sustainable future for Asia.
