Adopting Smart Charging for an EV Fleet

Propulsion Québec, in partnership with Hydro-Québec, shares the benefits of smart charging for an electric vehicle fleet.

The article first looks at the definition of a charging plan and a power demand. Finally, to integrate the concept of intelligence into the charging of vehicles in a fleet, the use of a software platform is essential. Platforms vary in their functionality, but the text paints a picture of the features that will give you the most benefit, including compatibility, integration and scheduling of recharges. Not to mention the famous plan B!
