In Galle, with the continuous advancement of industrial electrification transformation in local ports, warehousing and manufacturing sectors, more and more enterprises choose to replace traditional internal combustion forklifts with electric forklifts to reduce operation cost and meet low-carbon emission requirements. The total cost of supporting charging infrastructure construction has become one of the core concerns for most enterprise operators when expanding electric forklift fleets. The charging infrastructure cost for electric forklift fleets mainly covers four major parts, including power grid access and site renovation, charging equipment procurement, construction and installation, and post-operation maintenance reserve. The specific total cost varies significantly according to the scale of the fleet, the matching proportion of fast charging and slow charging equipment, and the existing power supply conditions of the plant area. Small fleets with less than 10 electric forklifts only need a relatively low investment to complete the layout of basic charging facilities, while medium and large fleets with more than 30 units need to apply for power capacity increase from local power departments in advance, which will generate corresponding access approval and grid transformation costs. Jianshu New Energy has rich practical experience in providing charging infrastructure layout consulting and supporting services for local industrial customers, and we can also provide integrated solutions matching BYD Forklift products to adapt to different working scenarios and operation rhythms.

For most enterprises, a reasonable charging infrastructure layout can recover the initial investment in 2 to 3 years through the cost saved from fuel consumption and regular maintenance of traditional fuel forklifts. In recent years, the local regulatory authority has also launched targeted subsidy policies for industrial electrification transformation, and enterprises that meet the qualification requirements can apply for corresponding subsidies to further reduce the total input of charging facilities. When calculating the overall cost, operators should also take long-term power consumption cost and daily maintenance cost into comprehensive consideration, rather than only focus on one-time upfront investment, so as to select the most suitable charging scheme to guarantee the stable operation of the whole electric forklift fleet.
