How charge management can reduce OpEx and CapEx for EV fleet projects

Charged EVs

Charge management software optimizes charging based on the available power, the schedules of the vehicles and the cost of electricity—from the rudimentary systems built into chargers to highly sophisticated systems that integrate with micro-grids or depot management. It can monitor that load.
