FAQ
Assessment depends on vehicle duty cycles, route predictability, depot access to electrical infrastructure, and available capital/grant funding. A fleet feasibility study evaluates these factors and identifies the best candidates for initial electrification.
Capacity requirements depend on fleet size, vehicle types, and charging strategy. A 10-vehicle light-duty fleet might need 200-400 kW, while heavy-duty refuse trucks require significantly more. We conduct load analysis as part of infrastructure planning.
Absolutely. We design infrastructure with future expansion in mind, ensuring initial installations can scale as you add vehicles without requiring complete system redesigns or costly retrofits.
Programs include EPA grants, DOT/FTA funding, state clean transportation programs, and utility incentives. Available funding varies by location and fleet type—we help identify and navigate applicable programs for your jurisdiction.
Upfront costs include equipment, installation, and utility upgrades, but lower fuel and maintenance costs often deliver positive ROI within 5-7 years. Grant funding can cover 50-80% of infrastructure costs in many cases.
Unmanaged charging can trigger high demand charges from utilities. Our energy management and load management systems optimize charging schedules to minimize demand peaks and reduce monthly utility costs by 30-40%.
Level 2 charging (typically overnight, 6-8 hours) works well for vehicles with predictable schedules. DC fast charging (30 minutes to 2 hours) suits emergency vehicles, refuse trucks, or fleets needing quick turnarounds between shifts.
Capacity requirements depend on fleet size, vehicle types, and charging strategy. A 10-vehicle light-duty fleet might need 200-400 kW, while heavy-duty refuse trucks require significantly more. We conduct load analysis as part of infrastructure planning.
Our 98% uptime guarantee includes redundant systems, 24/7 monitoring, and rapid on-site response. We design infrastructure so single-point failures don’t strand your entire fleet.
Federal funding often requires that iron, steel, and manufactured products be domestically produced. We ensure equipment selection and procurement documentation meet Buy America compliance for grant-funded projects.
Yes. We design mixed-fleet charging solutions with appropriate power levels for each vehicle class, managed through intelligent load balancing to prevent overloading your electrical service.
Refuse trucks typically require 100-150 kW charging to support daily collection routes (80-120 miles). We analyze route data, vehicle specs, and operational schedules to right-size infrastructure.
