As electric vehicle (EV) fleets grow, it is becoming increasingly important for fleet managers to optimise their operations with help from real-time fleet management data and insights.

But if an EV fleet is spread across multiple locations, with different routes, vehicles and charging hardware, how do you best collate the right data to ensure it’s running as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible?

The answer lies in a centralised software management platform. It’s vital EV fleet managers underpin their growing charging infrastructure with the right technology – which is why we built the EO Cloud, a hardware-agnostic cloud-based management platform.

The EO Cloud provides first-class analytics and valuable vehicle assessments to inform better decisions when managing a fleet, no matter the location. It combines charge scheduling, site load management, vehicle telematics integration and energy data to help fleet managers optimise fuel cost per vehicle and reduce future infrastructure installation costs.

Here are a few principles to look out for when selecting a software management platform:

1 A solution that allows you to add OCPP-compliant chargers from different manufacturers and manage them all from one software platform – a pre-requisite in an industry developing as fast as this one.

2 A system with a central dashboard, offering an easy to digest, real-time snapshot of your entire charging network and key charging statistics.

3 A platform that supports the reporting and diagnosis of issues. EO Cloud enables the business’ dedicated support team to track hardware issues and deploy an engineer to any depot within a Service Level Agreement (SLA) timeframe.
