Correction Notice

The news release published on April 26, 2023, "Demonstration Operation of Optimized Performance Enabling Network for Volt/Var(Q) (OPENVQ) of Power Transmission Network Commences in Thailand -1,000 tons of CO₂ Emissions Reduction confirmed-", included incorrect information on the total amount of CO₂ emissions reduction. The news release is hereby corrected as follows:

Release Subject to Correction:

Demonstration Operation of Optimized Performance Enabling Network for Volt/Var(Q)
(OPENVQ) of Power Transmission Network Commences in Thailand

1. Correction

1-1 Subtitle

(Error) -1000 tons of CO₂ Emissions Reduction confirmed-
(Corrected) -200 tons of CO₂ Emissions Reduction confirmed-

1-2 Summary, the 2nd paragraph

(Error) approximately 1000 tons of CO₂ emissions had been reduced
(Corrected) approximately 200 tons of CO₂ emissions had been reduced

1-3 2.The Project Overview, the 5th paragraph

(Error) we confirmed that CO₂ emissions had been reduced by approximately 1000 tons until March 10^th.
(Corrected) we confirmed that CO₂ emissions had been reduced by approximately 200 tons until March 10^th.

2. The Reason for Correction

Due to an error in the coefficient of the calculation formula in the worksheet used in the demonstration operation to measure the amount of CO₂ emissions reduction, the aggregate result was thus quintupled.
