When transitioning to zero-emission fleets, the top concerns fleet owners and operators express are cost, complexity of infrastructure deployment, and what happens if the power goes out? The solution lies in good power planning. Reliability and resilience of the energy supply needed for the ZEV fleet infrastructure is critical. The implementation of fleet microgrids can provide resilient power management and cost saving advantages. This session will explore operational considerations that affect vehicle selection and infrastructure planning, the importance of site selection and utility coordination, cost of energy, planning for future energy needs and building in back-up power and long-term resilience.
