Ten years ago, China was dominated by internal combustion forklifts; ten years later, the development of internal combustion forklifts has declined, and electric forklifts are unstoppable. A decade ago, when people mentioned BYD, they only knew it as a representative of new energy vehicles; ten years later, BYD has become a leader in new energy forklifts, holding half of the lithium battery forklift market... In just ten years, how did BYD, a representative enterprise of new energy vehicles, transform into a leader in new energy forklifts? Recently, at the 2019 BYD Forklift Dealer Conference, a statement from BYD Forklift General Manager Bi Guozhong clarified my doubts: "Continuously meeting user needs is the driving force behind the company's progress. BYD has never stopped in technological innovation and insists on being a leader in green logistics." There is a saying in the field of new energy vehicles: whoever masters the power technology holds the dominant position in competition. The key to BYD becoming a representative of new energy vehicles lies in its possession of the "three electrics" technology, namely battery, motor, and electronic control. In the past, new energy forklifts generally used lead-acid batteries, which, although cheaper to produce, have many drawbacks, such as: significant environmental pollution; short lifespan; long charging time; high risk of explosion and other safety incidents; and low working efficiency in low-temperature conditions. In contrast, BYD's lithium iron phosphate batteries have significant advantages: zero pollution, zero emissions, recyclable; battery life of over 10 years; fully adaptable to high and low-temperature working environments; short charging time and long range; high safety performance; and maintenance-free. BYD's application of new energy vehicle batteries and other key technologies to forklifts is like giving new energy forklift users a reassurance.
