Iqembu labasabalalisi be-CNG abasebenza kahle kakhulu nabahlakaniphile lisetshenzisiwe futhi laqala ukusebenza ezweni lonke, lihlinzeka ngezinsizakalo zokugcwalisa uphethiloli ezizinzile nezisebenzayo zamatekisi endawo, amabhasi omphakathi, kanye nemikhumbi yezimpahla.

Lolu chungechunge lwezihlikihli zilungiselelwe ngokukhethekile isimo sezulu saseThailand esishisayo, esibonakala ngamazinga okushisa aphezulu, umswakama ophezulu, kanye nemvula enkulu. Izingxenye ezibalulekile zenziwe ngezinto ezingagqwali ezinokuvalwa okuthuthukisiwe, kuyilapho uhlelo lukagesi lunesivikelo sokumelana nomswakama kanye nokushisa ngokweqile ukuqinisekisa ukuthembeka kwesikhathi eside ezindaweni ezinomswakama nezishisayo. Izihlikihli zihlanganisa amamitha okugeleza anembile kakhulu, ukulawulwa kokucindezela okuzenzakalelayo, kanye namamojula okugcwalisa uphethiloli ngokushesha, futhi zifakwe isikhombimsebenzisi sokusebenza kolimi lwesiThai kanye nemiyalezo yezwi ukuze kube lula ukuyisebenzisa nokulungisa abasebenzi bendawo.

Ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nenani elikhulu lezimoto kanye nezikhathi zokugcwalisa uphethiloli ezivamile emadolobheni ezivakashi aseThailand nasezindaweni zokuthutha, abasabalalisi basekela ukusebenza kwama-nozzle amaningi ngesikhathi esisodwa kanye nokuphathwa komugqa ohlakaniphile, okunciphisa kakhulu isikhathi sokulinda izimoto. Imishini iphinde ifakwe ipulatifomu yokuqapha nokuhlaziya idatha ekude, ekwazi ukuqoqa amarekhodi okugcwalisa uphethiloli, isimo semishini, kanye nedatha yokusetshenziswa kwamandla ngesikhathi sangempela. Lokhu kwenza kube lula ukugcinwa kokubikezela kanye nokwenza ngcono ukusebenza kahle kwamandla, kusiza abaqhubi ukuthuthukisa amandla esevisi yesiteshi kanye nenzuzo yokusebenza.

Kuyo yonke inqubo yokuqaliswa, ithimba lephrojekthi licabangele imithetho yendawo, imikhuba yabasebenzisi, kanye nezimo zengqalasizinda eThailand, lihlinzeka ngezinsizakalo eziphelele kusukela ekuhlaziyweni kwesidingo, ukwenza ngokwezifiso umkhiqizo, ukuhlolwa kwendawo, ukufakwa nokuqeqeshwa, kuya ekusekelweni kokusebenza kwesikhathi eside. Imishini iyahambisana nezinhlelo zokulawula iziteshi ezivamile kanye nezindlela zokukhokha eThailand, okuvumela ukuhlanganiswa okungenamthungo kunethiwekhi ekhona yokugcwalisa i-CNG. Ukuthunyelwa ngempumelelo kwalaba basabalalisi kucebisa kakhulu ingqalasizinda yamandla okuthutha ehlanzekile yaseThailand futhi kunikeza imodeli ethembekile yokukhuthaza imishini yokugcwalisa i-CNG kwezinye izindawo ezinokushisa okuphezulu kanye nomswakama ophezulu eNingizimu-mpumalanga ye-Asia.

Uma sibheke phambili, njengoba iThailand iqhubeka nokuhlukanisa imithombo yamandla ezokuthutha zomhlaba, izinhlangano ezifanele zingaqhubeka nokuhlinzeka ngezixazululo ezihlanganisiwe zokunikezwa kwamandla—kufaka phakathi i-CNG, i-LNG, kanye nokushaja izimoto zikagesi—ukusekela izwe ekwakheni uhlelo lwamandla ezokuthutha oluluhlaza noluqinile.
