It's a bit strange considering they could have hosted the hardware at Verne Global for half the cost of electricity in Thailand

Untrue. On a sidenote, I've seen your question about the evaps after RockMiner released picture of AMHash.
Most of the Chinese farms started to use similar evaps after Gordon Ao (Innosilicon CEO) visited Cowboyminer facility early this year.

Yea, what threw me off was that AM's evap coolers are indoors, never seen that before.

$0.06-0.07/kwh makes it a plausible location for a mine but it's still far from optimal (although much better than the ~$0.11/kwh several sites led me to believe).

I don't think there's any conspiracy. It really is quite sad to see so much hardware go to waste. I hope they can get back on their feet eventually.
