Best of LinkedIn: Commercial Fleet Insights CW 32/ 33

We curate most relevant posts about Commercial Fleets on LinkedIn and regularly share key takeaways.

This edition collectively discuss the complex and evolving landscape of fleet electrification, highlighting various aspects crucial for a successful transition. Several authors emphasise the financial viability and total cost of ownership (TCO) benefits of electric vehicles over traditional internal combustion engine vehicles, particularly over longer durations, while acknowledging initial investment hurdles. A significant focus is placed on the critical role of charging infrastructure, with discussions ranging from innovative energy management solutions to overcome grid constraints, to the challenges of establishing sufficient depot and public charging, and government funding schemes supporting this development. Furthermore, the sources explore the importance of data-driven strategies and advanced software solutions, including AI and telematics, for optimising fleet operations, managing energy, and making informed electrification decisions. Finally, stakeholder collaboration and overcoming internal organisational "gridlock" are identified as key to accelerating the adoption of zero-emission fleets across diverse sectors, despite ongoing regulatory complexities and market fluctuations.
