Main Article Content
Abstract
This academic article aims to explain the overall adaptation of gas station infrastructure to the era of electric vehicles. It begins by addressing the significance of the transition policy towards electric vehicles, analyzing the global and Thai perspectives on the transition from traditional gas stations to electric vehicle charging stations. The study examines and synthesizes strategic management concepts that can be applied to adapt gas stations to the electric vehicle era.
Findings are as follows: The strategic management concepts applicable to the adaptation of gas stations to the era of electric vehicles include (1) Strategy 5 Forces Management Concept (2) Strengths Analysis Strategy Management Concept (3) Blue Ocean Strategy Management Concept (4) Linkage Analysis Strategy Management Concept and (5) Innovation Strategy Management Concept.
