Thailand Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Market Trends:

Expansion of Data Centers and Digital Infrastructure

Thailand’s emergence as a regional hub for cloud services and digital infrastructure is resulting in rapid investment in large-scale, technologically advanced data centers. PLCs are vital in these facilities, managing power distribution, precision cooling, fire suppression, and environmental monitoring to ensure uninterrupted operations. A key milestone in this development occurred in 2025 when True IDC, under the Charoen Pokphand Group, launched Thailand’s first AI Hyperscale Data Center. With over 20 MW of capacity and specialized optimization for AI and GPU-intensive workloads, the facility features advanced liquid cooling technology, setting a new benchmark for efficiency and performance in the region. This reflects the growing demand for robust, high-capacity infrastructure to support online platforms, streaming services, and e-commerce growth. As more data centers adopt such advanced designs, PLC-based automation are emerging as an essential solution for precise climate control, real-time system oversight, and seamless integration, ensuring both reliability and scalability across Thailand’s expanding digital infrastructure.

Increasing Infrastructure and Energy Projects

Thailand’s ongoing infrastructure expansion, encompassing transportation systems, utilities, and renewable energy developments, is driving the demand for advanced automation solutions. PLCs are vital in managing and monitoring operations in power generation plants, water treatment facilities, and transport automation systems. In 2025, the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) initiated bidding for a 50 MW floating solar project at Vajiralongkorn Dam in Kanchanaburi, scheduled for completion in 2027. This project aligns with the nation’s commitment to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 and net-zero emissions by 2065. Renewable energy initiatives such as this require high-performance PLCs for precise grid integration, real-time process control, and system optimization. Additionally, energy efficiency targets are prompting retrofits of older infrastructure with modern PLC-based systems. Supported by public-private partnerships (PPP) and policy incentives, these infrastructure investments are ensuring sustained opportunities for PLC suppliers and reinforcing Thailand’s long-term transition toward smarter, more sustainable industrial and utility operations.

Growth in the Packaging and Logistics Sector

Thailand's swiftly expanding e-commerce industry, along with its robust export-driven economy, is driving the need for innovative packaging, sorting, and distribution technologies. PLCs are essential for automating crucial functions, such as conveyor line control, palletizing systems, labeling machines, and material handling in warehouses. The IMARC Group estimates that the e-commerce sector in Thailand will reach USD 1,156.38 Billion by 2033, highlighting the magnitude of upcoming logistics needs. To satisfy these requirements, logistics hubs and distribution centers are progressively combining PLCs with barcode scanning systems, radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, and automated storage and retrieval systems. These integrations guarantee quicker order processing, real-time tracking of shipments, and enhanced accuracy, which are essential for managing large transaction volumes. With the sector's continued growth, automation driven by PLCs is proving essential for sustaining operational efficiency, improving reliability, and facilitating scalability throughout Thailand’s developing logistics and supply chain framework. This rising demand for advanced automation solutions is a major factor supporting the Thailand programmable logic controller (PLC) market growth, as businesses seek to modernize logistics infrastructure and maintain a competitive edge in the evolving e-commerce landscape.
