For a fleet, charging is an operations question. Vehicles must be ready when shifts start, and every hour spent waiting at a charger is an hour off the road.
Depot charging
Charging at your own depot gives you control over availability and cost. Vehicles that return overnight can use AC chargers or lower-power DC chargers, which keeps hardware and electricity demand manageable.
Public charging
Public DC fast chargers fill the gaps: vehicles on long routes, double shifts or unplanned trips. Roaming access lets drivers use partner networks without carrying several accounts.
Most fleets need both
A typical setup charges most vehicles at the depot and uses public charging as a top-up. The key is seeing both in one place, with energy and costs tracked per vehicle and driver.
Plan around duty cycles
- How far does each vehicle travel per shift?
- How long is it parked between shifts?
- How many vehicles return at the same time?
These answers decide how many chargers you need and how powerful they should be.
Manage power, not just chargers
When many vehicles plug in at once, smart charging spreads the load so you stay within your site's power limit without missing departure times.
