SPRING PROCESS
ZEV & Site Feasibility Assessment
​To embark on the journey of transitioning to electric vehicles (ZEVs), the initial and crucial step involves assessing your fleet's vehicle mix and application to determine the feasibility of the transition. There are many variables to take into account, this list is not exhaustive, but will give you a good idea of some of the most important:
-
Charge Location Ownership / Lease Constraints (Public / Private)
-
Vehicle & Charger Interoperability
-
Driving Behavior Impact (MPG / KwH per mile)
-
Identification Of Viable ZEV Capable Routes
-
Hours Of Service Impact
-
Cargo Weight Implications
-
EV Vehicle Ratio Verus ICE
-
Site Power Availability
-
Optimal Vehicle / Charger For Use Case (Portable, Fixed, Speed, Sequential / Parallel)
Funding, Leasing & Incentive Options
For vehicles and chargers, alongside conventional leasing, and funding, various factors, such as tax credits or incentives, can significantly influence the financial landscape of your fleet. It is crucial for your financing partner to evaluate whether your fleet qualifies for these incentives and how they will impact your overall financial standing.
While the initial funding costs for electric vehicles (ZEVs) are likely to be higher, the ongoing operational expenses are considerably lower compared to internal combustion engine (ICE) counterparts. Collaborating with GREEN SPRING, we can provide the entire analysis to compare your current fleet costs versus a ZEV solution.
Vehicle / Charger Acquisition & Deployment
Once we have collectively identified the suitable vehicles (ZEVs) for your specific use case (price, lead time, efficiency), it is essential to have a dedicated team that specializes in sourcing, ordering, and shipping these vehicles - this can be your team, or we can manage this process for you.
With the emergence of new original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in the heavy-duty space and our relationships, we can leverage our extensive experience working with a diverse range of OEMs, vendors and construction companies. Reach out to learn about starting a fleet assessment for your network.
