NEX and AAB Showcase Electric Bus Production Capabilities to BMTA
NEX Point and Absolute Assembly recently hosted a delegation from the Bangkok Mass Transit Authority to demonstrate their electric bus manufacturing facilities.
On August 24, 2026, NEX Point Public Company Limited (NEX), in collaboration with Absolute Assembly Company Limited (AAB)—a subsidiary of Energy Absolute Public Company Limited (EA)—welcomed representatives from the Bangkok Mass Transit Authority (BMTA) to their manufacturing plant. The visit was intended to showcase the companies' readiness and technical capabilities in the production and assembly of electric buses within Thailand.
For residents and frequent commuters in Bangkok, this visit highlights ongoing efforts to modernize the city's public transportation fleet with electric vehicles. As the BMTA continues to explore options for fleet renewal, the domestic production capacity of NEX and AAB represents a potential shift toward locally manufactured sustainable transit solutions.
While the event confirms that the manufacturers are actively demonstrating their infrastructure to the transit authority, it remains to be confirmed whether this visit will lead to specific procurement contracts or a formal timeline for the deployment of new electric buses on Bangkok’s public routes. Further details regarding potential orders, delivery schedules, or specific bus models intended for public service have not been disclosed at this time. The visit serves as a demonstration of industrial capacity rather than a finalized agreement.
