EV Charging Stations (CS)
Below are the eight (8) main Thailand EV charging networks I'm registered with and have used multiple times with the exception of the EVolt app which I only registered with recently and haven't given one of their chargers a real world test but I expect they work just fine. I chose these particular 8 apps since they cover approx 90% or more of the "DC Fast Chargers" in Thailand....I really don't care about their "AC Charger Stations (i.e., 7-22Kw AC chargers)" which they also have plenty of because when on road trips I want to charge "fast" at a DC charger vs setting for hours charging at a low power AC charger. The only AC charger I love & cherish is my home AC 7KW wall charger that I use all the time....just like how a person uses a smartphone charger to keep their phone charged. Actually and excluding 5 months of free charging at ReverSharger DC chargers, in my road trips I've only "really needed" to use a DC Fast Charger twice to ensure I could get back home to Bangkok on a day trip...and that was on trips from Bangkok to Takhli and to Rayong. My road trips so far have been limited to approx a 225 km "radius" from Bangkok simply because these have been sight seeing day trips. But if/when I do need to go on a truly long, multi-day trip by being registered with these 8 apps it's going to be pretty much impossible not being able to easily & frequently drive by a DC Faster Charger assuming I'm staying on main roads passing thru small towns vs traveling on small roads for long distances out in the jungle, sticks, cane & rice fields, etc. Now, I'm also registered with one more charging network called "Power Envision" (my 9th registration) which uses a LINE app vs an Android/Apple app....I've only used it once at a nearby Foodland but it worked easy & fine....I registered more out of curiosity than anything else since it was using an LINE app which was "super" easy to register on and use....was using 30 and 40KW DC Chargersactually easier than a normal Android/Apple app. Below 8 Android/Apple charging network apps are not listed in any particular preference but I will have to say there are a lot of PTT fuel stations across Thailand and many of these dino fuel stations also have DC chargers (more and more everyday) although the fuel station may not have an EV sign on their main PTT roadside sign. In fact, my experience so far is less than half of the PTT fuel stations that also have chargers have a EV sign on their main road sign. Regardless of the chargers you are looking for, be sure to use charging network "apps" to show where chargers are located as they are very numerous around Thailand...do not expect to see an "EV Charger Here" type road sign as you drive along as the great majority of the time there will not be any EV sign----use the charging network apps....and/or app like Plug & Share or ChargeLoma to see where chargers are located as they are almost everywhere now days. Between Plug & Share and ChargeLoma I prefer ChargeLoma as it's focused predominately on the "primarily/major" charging networks in Thailand, how it allows you to display just certain networks, etc. PTT EV Station Pluz probably should be one of the first charging apps a person registers with simply because they there are many PTT fuel stations across Thailand which have DC/AC chargers. However, everyone will have a different preference mostly because of how numerous certain charging networks will be located where they live and where they typically do Out & About road trips, those weekends drives to checkout some place you never been to before, etc. In closing, I will soon post about some 'minor but growing" charging networks here in Thailand. I haven't registered with any of these smaller (but growing) networks yet but I've played around with some of the apps (or their websites) without registering so see what kind of chargers they have and where the chargers are located. But I am thinking about registering with two of them once they get a few more "DC Fast Charger" locations under their belt. Lot of charger competition and growth happening right now. More to come. - PTT EV Station Pluz (mostly at many PTT fuel stations) - Elexa by EGAT (mostly at many PT fuel stations) - EA Anywhere -ReverSharger (mostly at BYD dealerships, Bangchak, Shell, and SUSCO fuel stations) - Altervim (mostly at the medium to large Lotus stores) - Spark (mostly at Bangchak fuel stations which includes the oil ESSO stations) - PEA - EVolt Charging Networks I'm Registered With....networks that use Android/Apple apps Snapshot of the Power Envision charging network "LINE app" which some folks might find useful especially in the Bangkok area....it seems to be one of these new charging networks primarily using DC chargers in the 30-40KW power range along with 7-22KW AC chargers and focusing on any business that wants to install a EV chargers at their place of business, at/in condo high rises, hotels, etc...etc...etc.
