Lessons Learned from Successful and Failed Fleet Conversion Programs

Despite making up only a small portion of vehicle sales, fleet vehicles are responsible for a disproportionate share of greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector due to their high mileage. In response to growing pressure from policy makers and consumers, many fleets have started to transition to low carbon technologies. These two factors, coupled with the falling cost of EV battery packs, have caused fleet electrification to gain momentum.

This report reviews current technologies available for reducing emissions from fleet vehicles and the challenges and opportunities presented by fleet decarbonization. It includes case studies across different fleet applications, showcasing both successful and failed attempts at fleet conversion. These case studies provide valuable insights into the practical challenges and opportunities presented by fleet decarbonization.

The report also emphasizes the need for innovative solutions in decarbonizing fleets. By focusing on these, stakeholders can make informed decisions that reduce the environmental impact of fleet vehicles while benefiting from cost savings and improved operational efficiency.
