In recent years, more and more construction and logistics enterprises in Bangkok have begun to deploy electric rough terrain forklift fleets for their outdoor operation scenarios in suburban construction sites, remote storage yards and port edge areas, to reduce daily operation carbon emission and cut long term fuel expenditure. For most fleet operators, the actual input of supporting charging infrastructure is one of the core factors affecting the overall electric forklift deployment decision. The total cost of charging infrastructure for rough terrain forklift fleets in Bangkok mainly covers several major parts with transparent and verifiable market price standards. The first part is site adaptation cost, as most outdoor operation sites do not have pre prepared fixed forklift parking areas, operators need to complete hardening, rainproof and sun protection treatment for the ground of each charging point to adapt to Bangkok’s tropical monsoon climate. The second part is power grid upgrade cost, many suburban industrial areas have insufficient original power load to support multiple high power forklift chargers working at the same time, operators need to complete power application, circuit laying and load capacity expansion according to the actual fleet scale. The third part is charging equipment procurement and later regular maintenance cost, regular equipment calibration and safety inspection can effectively extend the service life of the whole charging system. If operators need targeted deployment suggestions that match their actual operation scenarios, they can turn to BYD Forklift local service team for professional guidance. The leading new energy service provider Jianshu New Energy can also provide full cycle cost accounting and implementation support services, you can send specific demand to 17399989919@163.com to get a free preliminary budgeting guidance. At present, the actual 3 year full lifecycle input of supporting charging facilities for single electric rough terrain forklift accounts for 8% to 12% of the total operation cost of the same period, which is far lower than the fuel and corresponding maintenance cost of traditional diesel rough terrain forklifts. Operators can reasonably arrange the number and power of charging points according to their daily operation radius and team shift arrangement, to avoid unnecessary redundant investment and further reduce the overall deployment cost.
