Reinventing Electrical Resiliency for Electric Fleets

Fleet electrification: Navigating EV fleet adoption

The transportation industry is the largest producer of greenhouse gas emissions in the US. The transition to electric vehicles, including electric fleets, is a critical milestone on businesses’ path to meeting Net Zero goals. This is because diesel fleet vehicles and buses can release up to 30 times the amount of carbon dioxide as a passenger vehicle so electrifying fleets will meet their ambitious carbon reduction goals.

With the evolution towards electric bus or trucking fleets, it’s crucial to consider the strain this could place on our existing electric grid, a system largely built during the 1960s and 1970s with an anticipated lifespan of 50 years. Without careful planning with utilities, the high-power demands of electric fleets could overburden our already struggling distribution and transmission infrastructure. More frequent power outages are a risk to business continuity and could deter the decision to electrify altogether.

Efficient EV fleet management requires optimizing charging schedules and maintaining a reliable electric fleet vehicle charging infrastructure. One of the challenges fleet operators face is finding a reliable and cost-effective power supply for EV fleets, especially during peak charging hours. The second challenge is minimizing downtime so that there is minimal disruption, even when the grid is down.

Forward thinking EV fleet operators are building resiliency into their power infrastructure and business continuity plans to counter the financial impacts of a fragile electric grid.
