    As economic growth influences the higher demand for using electricity, there is a need to increase the norm and attitude influencing the intention to generate green electricity, which is a key source of energy to drive the country’s economy and development. Therefore, the objectives of this research were to study the total, direct, and indirect effects of the variables on the intention to use solar rooftop energy of households in Thailand, and to develop a model of the government policy and subjective use of solar rooftop energy of households in Thailand. This study was a quantitative research in which a set of questionnaires was used as an instrument to collect data from 240 samples, i.e., houses in all regions of Thailand. The samples were obtained by convenience sampling, and the data analysis relied on descriptive statistics and the structure equation model (SEM). The results showed that “Government Policy”, “Subjective Norm”, and “Attitude” had positive effects on the intention to use solar rooftop energy of households in Thailand. The model conformed to the empirical data with a significance level of 0.001. However, the government should set a security policy for the development of electricity generation by mixing sources of fuels in order to reduce the risk of heavily relying on a certain type of fuel. The transmission system should also be developed for greater reliability along with promoting the use of renewable energy to enhance the electric energy security of the country in the future.

    The purpose of this study was to determine how government policies affect the sustainable management in a circular economy in steel recycling manufacturing companies using Thailand as a case study. To develop and examine a structural equation model, a set of management sustainability indicators from previous studies was used. The study target's (steel recycling manufacturers) behavior was quantitatively analyzed using questionnaire-based surveys. The literature has rarely seen interactions between disparate research structures as a means of integrating circular economics, such as the intricate relationship between government policy and longer product life cycles, steel recycling, and sustainable circular economy management research. In the absence of the ability to regulate government benefits through businesses, businesses will speak to influence policy. It was found that broad enablers such as financial assistance, logistics, and fundraising guidance significantly influenced government policy solutions in the steel sector. Government policies promoting direct and indirect investment as a result of the adoption of the circular economy also heavily rely on infrastructure. Understanding how this policy affects customer perceptions and behavior enables businesses to continue advocating for the positive impact of policymaking on governments, industries, and customers. There is still room for additional research to examine the implications of various policies in different regions in order to determine those policies that are most likely to succeed.
