Connected mobility solutions provider Teletrac Navman has revealed major updates to its alternative energy product portfolio that will enable fleets to strategically plan, implement, and track the transition from internal combustion engine (ICE) to multi-fuel capabilities.
EVE (Electric Vehicle Evaluator) by Teletrac Navman is an electric vehicle (EV) transition platform that utilises telematics data and predictive analytics to build a plan that supports a fleet’s decarbonisation goals.
Mayank Sharma, Head of Global Product Management & UX at Teletrac Navman, says, “Fleets all over the globe are facing pressures to change to low carbon energy types in an efficient and cost-effective way, without disrupting business operations – it can be overwhelming. We have designed EVE to help fleet managers navigate the journey to alternative energy by simplifying what can be a very complex process.”
EVE provides intelligence for transition planning in three key areas: Feasibility Planning, Financial Planning, and Infrastructure Design, to support informed strategic capex planning and expenditure
conversations.
The Feasibility Planning tool helps to identify the vehicles suitable for transition to electric based on
trip and cargo data and the optimum battery and charger types to use. The Financial Planning
element provides a detailed cost analysis of the total cost ownership (TCO) between EV and ICE
vehicles, indicating which ones would be more cost effective to transition.
EVE’s Infrastructure Design tool models the most efficient charging infrastructure to support and
sustain a transition plan. It also has the capability to factor in weather conditions, different charger
powers, site charge fuse limits and varying base load; enabling fleets to build a custom infrastructure
that will keep their businesses moving.
The launch of EVE is complimented by Teletrac Navman’s new Sustainability Dashboard which enables fleet managers to monitor progress against their decarbonisation targets once their energy transition has commenced.
