While there are many electric vehicle brands, there are only two methods for powering electric vehicles; fuel cells or batteries. Both produce electricity to drive electric motors, eliminating the pollution and inefficiencies of the fossil fuel, or ICE (internal combustion engine). Why is this important? With President Biden’s new $2 Trillion Plan to rebuild infrastructure and reshape the economy with EVs in mind, the industry will no doubt move forward, quickly.

As fleets still are considering Electric, they often are grappling with the idea of which is better? Renewable Natural Gas (or RNG) or Electric? RNG is a replacement for Natural Gas that harnesses the energy of biogas produced from natural decomposition. While renewable natural gas sounds green-friendly, we will explain how it works and if it has a place as a future vehicle fuel.

Every day electric vehicles are being further solidified as part of our future. Technology advancements and price decreases are driving more adoption. Those who purchase now see the benefits from going electric--immediately. For fleets to reap these benefits, they must have the upfront capital required to procure zero-emission vehicles. And thankfully, the government has plenty of capital. But how do fleets get it?

Fleets have been and will continue to be tasked with making the switch to zero emission vehicles. With a variety of options on the market, why not choose one with the lowest total cost of ownership? Typically, electrifying your fleet has been more expensive up front, but overtime has lower operating costs. But even when comparing EV to EV, Endera has still figured out how to make a quality EV and with the lowest cost of ownership.

If your fleet is currently operating with diesel-fueled shuttles, it’s time to consider the numerous benefits of switching to clean fuel. From the massive savings to your budget to the collective effort to improve our air quality by cutting down on carbon emissions, the benefits are overwhelmingly positive.

Fleet regulations are essential for ensuring public safety and mitigating negative impacts on our environment. In July, fifteen states and the District of Columbia signed an agreement pledging to develop a plan to eliminate diesel emissions by 2050. Collectively, they will lead the way for the remainder of the U.S. in areas of policy and regulations imposed on fleets across the country.

Electric vehicle technology from only five years ago is already outdated. Many of these regulations require specific vehicle technology and infrastructure. Will you be ready? Do you know where to begin?

Shopping for electric vehicles is as close as fleet managers and executives will get to the famous feeling we had as kids in the candy store. We have identified four factors that will help you find, or even build the perfect vehicle for your fleet. Read now to learn how to find or build the perfect electric vehicle for your fleet.

Despite what historical timelines may tell us, innovation never happens instantly. We are in the middle of a new revolution: the future of electric commercial fleet management is here. While skeptics are still skeptical, leaders are underway converting their fleets to stay up with new mandates and build a more sustainable future.
