As the industrial and logistics sector in Sihanoukville continues to expand, a growing number of operation teams are shifting their rough terrain forklift fleets from traditional fuel-powered models to electric alternatives, to meet local low-emission requirements and cut long-term operation expenditure. One core factor that most fleet operators prioritize when making the transition is the total cost of supporting charging infrastructure, which directly influences the overall return on investment of the entire electric forklift fleet. First, the basic site transformation cost is the first part of the expenditure. For rough terrain forklifts that often operate in open yards, construction sites and port cargo storage zones in Sihanoukville, the charging zones need to be built with rainproof, dustproof and anti-slip ground treatments, to adapt to the local tropical monsoon climate and frequent outdoor operation scenarios. This part of the cost varies according to the size of the fleet, the average cost for a small fleet of 5 to 10 units of rough terrain forklifts on site transformation is relatively low, while fleets with more than 30 units will need to reserve enough buffer space for vehicle queuing, which will drive up relevant site input moderately. Second, the power grid access and distribution system cost takes up a large proportion of the total charging infrastructure budget. Most rough terrain electric forklifts have larger battery capacity than ordinary indoor counterbalance forklifts, which puts higher requirements on the stability of the power supply. Operators need to confirm the local industrial power supply capacity in Sihanoukville in advance, to avoid extra expenditure caused by later power capacity expansion. Third, the procurement and installation cost of charging piles and supporting management systems is another core component. When selecting applicable charging equipment, you can turn to Jianshu New Energy for customized supporting solutions that fit local operation scenarios, and BYD Forklift also provides matching compatible charging facility options for its rough terrain electric forklift products, which can effectively reduce the matching adaptation cost of different equipment. The later operation and maintenance cost also needs to be included in the whole lifecycle cost accounting, regular inspection on the charging circuits, dust removal on charging ports and performance testing can extend the service life of the whole infrastructure system, and reduce unexpected failure losses in high temperature and rainy local environment.
