A hybridized work truck fleet provides a cost-effective, eco-conscious way for organizations to achieve an idle-free green fleet without sacrificing range.
While the future of electrification infrastructure is DC fast charging, some fleets may never need it. James Kennedy of Tritium explains the decision process.
When comparing propane to electric, fleets should examine factors around emissions, economics, and fueling.
New forms of sharing technology allow fleet operators — from corporate and rental fleets to motor pools — to increase utilization and recoup costs.
“Everyone comes into fleet electrification talking about hardware, and they leave talking about software workflow and project management,” says Michael Hughes of ChargePoint.
In the survey, conducted by Wakefield Research for telematics provider Samsara, 32% believe fleets will be one quarter electric within five years, while 50% believe in 10 years.
Electric vehicles’ short bout of success before gasoline engines became the mainstream gives us lessons for successful EV deployment in this new era.
Beyond electric vehicles, there is a wide array of fueling options that fleets can consider when identifying the best alt-fuel solutions for their operations.
Beyond the technological advancements considering vehicles running on unleaded gasoline or diesel, alternative-fueling technologies still very much have a place in the fleet space and are continuing to see technological advancements as well.
What is renewable gasoline and what does its development and use mean for government entities looking to reduce emissions?
Total cost of ownership for electric vehicles (EVs) depend on up-front costs, maintenance and fuel costs, and resale value. Here’s what to consider when calculating TCO.
Mack makes a major move into the electric truck market on the streets of New York City.
Meritor's T.J. Reed, global vice president of electrification, talks to HDT about the company's recent acquisition of TransPower and the state of electric commercial vehicles.
One of the most challenging issues surrounding electric vehicles is how to project TCO. Fuel costs are far more complex, and small samples make depreciation difficult to project. A new company, eIQ Mobility, has a process which can eliminate guesswork.
