Many individuals anticipate that electric vehicles should be installations in a future world that depends on environmentally friendly power. Be that as it may, relatively few EV organizations began as sustainable power organizations.

One organization attempting to pull off that accomplishment is Bangkok-based Energy Absolute. The biodiesel maker and environmentally friendly power organization expanded into the business EV business in 2019.

In March of this current year, Thailand put forward an objective of 1 million electric vehicles on its streets by 2025 — and it trusts that figure will develop to 15 million every decade after the fact. That would incorporate private cars as well as business vehicles — conveyance vans, trucks, transports and so forth.

A previous protections merchant, Somphote Ahunai, began Energy Absolute in 2006. He took the organization public in Thailand in 2013 and started venturing into energy stockpiling in 2016, when the organization procured shares in Taiwan-based Amita Technologies, an energy stockpiling maker. It’s currently in the last phases of building a $3 billion battery gigafactory venture to make lithium-particle batteries.

Ahunai told CNBC’s “Overseeing Asia” that the public authority’s endeavors to advance EV reception in Thailand have assisted him with beginning the task, and presently he says he’s asking the public authority “to open up the market and make an ideal arrangement for the EV market.”

Be that as it may, the pandemic has impacted the organization’s introduction to EVs. A request for 3,500 five-seater hatchbacks was dropped by a nearby taxi organization as the travel industry evaporated. Ahunai made a fast turn to zero in on business vehicles and battery stockpiling all things being equal.

“If we successfully secure [the commercial electric vehicle] segment … then we create economies of scale for us to go into the other segments,” such as passenger cars, Ahunai said.

Ahunai will likely introduce 1,000 charging stations cross country in the following not many years.

“We have rolled out almost 500 charging stations nationwide, mainly in Bangkok and vicinity,” Ahunai said, adding that the company holds almost 80% market share for charging stations in Thailand.

His attention on business vehicles is in accordance with Thailand’s strategy to put somewhere in the range of 70,000 business electric vehicles out and about yearly.

“In the event that we effectively secure [the business electric vehicle] fragment … then, at that point, we make economies of scale for us to go into different fragments,” like traveler vehicles, Ahunai said.

Japanese, American and German automakers all have made vehicles in Thailand, yet in spite of the country’s auto-production aptitude, it doesn’t have a universally perceived vehicle brand of its own. Ahunai said he accepts EVs could change that. He needs Energy Absolute to be up front on that work.

“We believe that by using [our] technology and Thailand’s [auto-making] infrastructure, we can use that to be the springboard to the global market,” Ahunai said. “At least, we can go into the ASEAN market, which has almost 600 million population. So, that is a good market for us at the beginning, to start with.”

At this moment, the majority of the organization’s income actually comes from environmentally friendly power like breeze and sunlight based, yet Ahunai said his introduction to business EVs will be a significant wellspring of future income.

“If you look at what we are investing [in] now,” he said, “it will totally change the revenue structure of the company in a few years’ time.”
