4. Payback & Sensitivity — ILLUSTRATIVE

Disclaimer: ILLUSTRATIVE — NOT A QUOTE. Inputs are placeholders; EXW unit price, duty, VAT, and energy tariff are PENDING.

Inputs (placeholder)

InputValue
CapEx per unit (installed, placeholder)USD 1,500
Annual OpEx per unitUSD 250
Average session energy delivered (per unit, per year)18,000 kWh
Mixed-energy tariff (THB, placeholder)4.0 THB/kWh (excl. VAT)
Energy markup captured by operator1.0 THB/kWh
Days operated per year330

Arithmetic shown

Gross annual energy margin per unit:

= 18,000 kWh × 1.0 THB/kWh = 18,000 THB/yr

Net annual energy margin per unit (after OpEx, converted at placeholder 36 THB/USD):

= 18,000 THB − (USD 250 × 36 THB/USD) = 18,000 − 9,000 = 9,000 THB/yr ≈ USD 250/yr

Simple payback per unit (illustrative):

= CapEx / Net annual margin = USD 1,500 / USD 250 ≈ 6.0 years

Sensitivity

ScenarioCapEx/unitNet margin/yrPayback (yrs)
Low EXW (−15%)USD 1,275USD 2505.1

FAQ

What HS code applies to a 22 kW AC EVSE imported into Thailand?

The candidate HS national line is 8537 — Boards, panels, consoles, desks, cabinets and other bases, equipped with two or more apparatus of heading 85.35 or 85.36, for electric control or the distribution of electricity. The exact 8-digit HS national line must be verified on the Thai Customs Department tariff portal before quoting.

Are the duty rates on this page final?

No. Every duty and VAT rate on this page is marked PENDING — lookup. Tradvolt does not hardcode Thai customs rates; buyers must confirm current rates on the official Thai Customs Department tariff portal.

Which compliance marks are typically expected for 22 kW AC EVSE in Thailand?

Typical expectations are IEC 61851-1 (Mode 3) and IEC 62196-2 (Type 2 connector). Buyers should confirm TIS (Thai Industrial Standards) applicability via the Thai Industrial Standards Institute (TISI) and the EV charger regulatory framework in force at the time of import.

Is the payback shown on this page a quote?

No. The payback and sensitivity figures are ILLUSTRATIVE — NOT A QUOTE. They use placeholder user inputs and PENDING tariff rates and must not be used for purchasing decisions without a dated Tradvolt RFQ quotation.

What is the typical RFQ lead time?

Tradvolt aims to reply to RFQs within 48 hours (business days, UTC+8) with a dated line-item quotation tied to the buyer-specified SKU, quantity, incoterm, target certifications, and destination.

Can Tradvolt support DDP delivery to the fleet yard in Thailand?

Yes, on request. DDP delivery depends on a buyer-side customs broker of record and confirmed HS national line on the Thai Customs Department tariff portal. Submit the RFQ form with Incoterm = DDP and your destination province/postcode.
