What to Consider When Electrifying Your Fleet

Featured Image

The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) in Australia is well underway. With over 100,000 EVs purchased in 2024 alone, this shift is not only visible, it’s accelerating. For fleet operators, this presents both an opportunity and a challenge: how to plan effectively, manage risk, and ensure business continuity during the transition.

Understanding the Business Drivers

Lower running costs, reduced maintenance, and growing financial incentives are making EVs an increasingly viable option for fleets. At the same time, emerging emissions requirements and policy changes are creating additional pressure to act.

Many organisations are now re-evaluating their fleet strategies to better align with environmental goals, compliance expectations, and operational efficiency targets.

The Complexity Behind the Transition

Fleet electrification is not a simple hardware upgrade, it involves changes to systems, processes, and infrastructure. From driver education and energy management to charging access and reimbursement models, each step must be carefully planned and executed.

Selecting the Right Charging Solution

Choosing a charging partner with the right expertise is essential. The process includes far more than installation, it involves long-term planning, software integration, monitoring, and support to ensure performance across all operating environments.

EVSE works with leading fleet operators, local governments, and private businesses to deliver end-to-end charging solutions tailored to their needs. Through our partner software platform Exploren, we offer smart energy management and real-time visibility across your fleet’s charging ecosystem – at home, at work, and on the road.

Will using a DC fast charger cause issues for your EV battery?

Although studies have indicated that regular fast (DC) charging may cause a battery to deteriorate more quickly than with AC charging, the impact on battery health is negligible. The average increase in battery degeneration due to DC charging is actually only 0.1 percent. Since lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are susceptible to high temperatures, taking good care […]

How Does Temperature Affect Your Car Battery?

A faulty battery is one of the main reasons for car breakdowns on the road. The battery performance can be heavily affected by temperature. An ideal operating temperature for a car battery is around 26.7 degrees Celsius or 80 degrees Fahrenheit. As batteries are made of chemical materials and operate based on chemical reactions, high […]
