The impact of electric vehicles on the automobile manufacturing clusters in Thailand
Abstract:
This research examines the profound influence of Electric Vehicles (EVs) on Thailands automobile manufacturing sector, a key pillar of the countrys economy and employment. EVs, as a sustainable transportation solution, can curtail fossil fuel consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and air pollution. However, the adoption rate of EVs in Thailand is relatively low compared to other nations due to numerous barriers and challenges. This paper analyzed the impact of EVs on the automobile manufacturing cluster in Thailand, considering both the opportunities and threats they present. Case studies of industry leaders who have successfully integrated EV technology into their operations were examined, contributing to the projected growth of the EV market. Through an exhaustive review of literature, market analysis, and statistical evaluation, this research identified critical factors influencing the adoption of EVs in Thailand, providing a nuanced understanding of its economic implications. The study employed Porters Diamond Model to analyze the competitive environment of the automobile manufacturing cluster, offering insights into how companies can navigate the complexities of EV integration. Recommendations are provided for automobile manufacturers to effectively harness the potential of EVs while addressing the socio-economic and regulatory challenges. This research contributes to the broader discourse on the role of EVs in transforming industries, offering a roadmap for automobile manufacturers to innovate responsibly and sustainably in the age of sustainable transportation.
