Fleets don’t want to go electric at scale until they’ve done years-long pilots, but the Advanced Clean Trucks regulation will artificially constrict that timeframe. Lots of fleets will be placing orders for heavy-duty EVs over the next few years. Soon they won’t have a choice. Is the supply of battery packs going to be a bottleneck?

A smart home can manage energy consumption across one or more EV chargers, possibly solar panels and/or battery storage, and thirsty appliances such as climate control systems and refrigerators. The other big market that the EV Series Pro plays a role in, and that’s really starting to take off, is the fleet market.

I would say that electricity is a vastly superior fuel for the light vehicle fleet,” said Willett Kempton , a professor and alternative energy specialist at the University of Delaware. Electrifying the entire vehicle fleet would provide more than three times the U.S.’s ’s power generation, he said. but not all of it.

In 2020 Tesla sold exactly 1000 of these for every solar-year day. I finally got hold of reported total bus fleets and bus replacement rates in Europe. For reference, in Europe, whose overall bus fleet size seems 2-3x smaller than China’s, somewhere around 2-2.5k OVERVIEW: WHEW, WHAT A YEAR! E-buses were deployed.
