Well-managed, commercial electric vehicles can offer fleets significant savings on both fuel and maintenance costs. But as fleets begin to map out plans to “fuel” these new vehicles, they quickly realize the vast differences between procuring diesel or natural gas and electricity as a fuel.  Electrons, amps, kilowatt hours, energy flow rate, time-of-use and demand charges… it’s a new frontier for fleet managers. And as many early adopters have learned, electricity demand management is a highly challenging and unforgiving application. Small human errors—such as turning on too many chargers simultaneously, scheduling charging incorrectly, or having faulty equipment—can have very expensive consequences.
