As businesses move towards electrification, making the right decisions about fleet transitions can be a complex and data-heavy task. Volteum’s Electric Fleet Planner simplifies this process by providing clear insights and detailed analysis to help companies transition to electric vehicles in the most cost-effective and efficient way possible.

A key feature of the software is its ability to visualize fleet data through powerful charts, offering a comprehensive view of current operations and potential electrification outcomes. In this post, we dive into how the Fleet Analytics feature in Electric Fleet Planner help fleet managers make informed decisions, streamline their electrification strategies, and share critical information with stakeholders across the organization.

A comprehensive solution for fleet electrification

The Electric Fleet Planner from Volteum helps companies set up their electrification strategies, transition to electric vehicles cost-efficiently, and plan their charging infrastructure optimally. By analyzing your fleet’s current operations and integrating with various data sources, the software helps develop a tailored electrification roadmap. It also recommends the most suitable electric vehicle alternatives, calculates the total cost of ownership (TCO), and provides a detailed plan for the required charging infrastructure.

Understanding Fleet Analytics in Volteum Electric Fleet Planner

Volteum’s Electric Fleet Planner provides a powerful way to analyze and visualize your fleet’s data, helping you make data-driven decisions throughout the electrification process. The software uses telematics data from your fleet, or can generate industry-specific usage data if telematics isn't available. This data is essential for understanding the feasibility of electrification, but raw fleet activity data and reports can be difficult to analyze. To streamline this process, Volteum presents key insights through easily interpretable dashboards and charts, significantly reducing the time spent on analysis.

• Current fleet status: The primary dashboard that describe your fleet's current operations include baseline metrics like CO2 emissions, fuel consumption, and mileage, all derived from historical telematics data. These visuals provide a clear picture of the fleet's current impact and performance.
