Banpu (ISIN TH0264010Z10) moved deeper into US power expansion after its subsidiary BKV entered a USD 800 million equipment agreement for a 1,200 MW plant on October 8, 2026, Kaohoon International reported. The project is intended to support power supply contracts with large data center operators.

Three dated steps in expansion

Banpu's latest operating sequence started with its second-quarter results on August 10, 2026, when the company reported USD 1,438 million in sales and USD 49 million in net profit on its investor-relations page, according to Banpu. On September 25, 2026, shareholders received an interim dividend of THB 0.40 per share, as reported by Simply Wall St. The October 8, 2026 BKV agreement then added a 1,200 MW development milestone to the story.

When is the next company date?

Banpu's next scheduled opportunity day is November 18, 2026, when the company plans to discuss its third-quarter 2026 performance, according to its investor-relations calendar. The date gives investors a defined checkpoint for testing whether the expansion strategy is translating into operating progress.

What does 1,200 MW mean for earnings?

The planned plant is close in scale to BKV's existing Temple I and Temple II facilities, which together have about 1,400 MW of capacity. Yuanta Securities (Thailand) maintained a THB 19.00 target on September 28, 2026 and projected Banpu net profit of THB 6.7 billion in 2027, up 4 percent year over year, according to Kaohoon International. The estimate makes execution and future power purchase agreements central to the earnings case.
