Converting to EVs for Fleet Operations: Leveraging Planning & Analytics for a Seamless Transition
Making informed decisions and reaching sustainability goals through EV fleet investments begins with extensive planning and leveraging the right insights. This panel will dive into:
- The basic formula of fleet electrification planning: matching energy supply and energy demand
- Testing the appropriate technology for your business before making a significant infrastructure investment
- How telematics data concerning charging, driver conduct, vehicle usage, and various operational aspects can aid fleet managers in achieving cost reductions and enhancing operational efficiency
- Different operational configurations as your fleet grows and power demand increases (and how to avoid over-investing)
- Optimizing depot charging (you don't need a charger for every vehicle)
