The demand for EV chargers and emergence of EV manufacturers in Thailand are driving up demand for the Thailand Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging market during the forecast period.
Thailand Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Market was valued at USD 203.52 million in 2022, and is predicted to reach USD 1545 million by 2030, with a CAGR of 29.5% from 2023 to 2030, according to new research by Next Move Strategy Consulting.
The Thai government has set ambitious targets for its automotive industry, aiming for 30% of vehicles produced in 2030 to be electric and positioning itself as a regional hub for EV manufacturing. The growing presence of electric vehicles (EVs) on Thailand's roads, driven by the National Electric Vehicle Policy and increased production from EV manufacturers, has led to a surge in demand for EV chargers in the country.
For instance, in February 2022, Thailand's cabinet granted preliminary approval to a package of incentives designed to promote EV adoption in the country and establish Thailand as a prominent EV manufacturing hub in Asia. This package includes exemptions or reductions in import duties and excise taxes, along with incentives to boost EV demand and attract investment in the EV industry. These measures are geared toward fostering widespread EV usage in Thailand.
However, Expanding the EV charging sector faces challenges. These include the absence of incentives and concerns about high installation costs. Notably, there's a substantial upfront investment needed for level 3 and ultra-fast chargers. In contrast, level 1 and level 2 chargers are slow, taking 6 to 16 hours for a full charge, much longer than the 5 to 7 minutes for refueling conventional fossil fuel vehicles. This difference has increased the demand for fast chargers that can recharge EVs in under 30 minutes.
Additionally, setting up a level 3 charging station requires a significant initial cost. This expense may discourage those considering switching to EVs, as longer charging times can disrupt their busy schedules.
On the other hand, introducing vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology for electric vehicles (EVs) enables bidirectional energy exchange with the power grid. V2G allows EVs to store excess electricity and return it to the grid, improving their components and benefiting EV owners. This technology streamlines the charging process, making EVs a preferred mode of transportation. The charging station market plays a vital role in connecting EVs to the grid efficiently and creating ample opportunities in future.
As part of the MOV-E project sponsored by Nissan for corporate electric car-sharing trials, Enel Energia S.p.A. established two V2G EV charging stations at the Italian Institute of Technology's Genoa headquarters. Nissan provided two battery electric vehicles (LEAF models) and the Glide app management platform. This collaboration signifies a significant advancement in sustainable transportation technology.
Manufacturers have the potential for substantial gains from V2G technology, poised to revolutionize the EV industry and charging methods. However, it's worth noting that the initial cost of installing V2G charging stations can be significant. Manufacturers of EV connectors have an opportunity to develop advanced connectors capable of meeting the expected electrical demands as V2G technology expands.
According to the report, leading players in the Thailand Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging market include ABB Ltd., ChargePoint, Inc, Tesla Inc, Shell Recharge Solutions, Star Charge, TELD, Siemens, BYD, EVgo, and Hyundai Motor Company.
