Challenges to Deploying EVs at Scale

Many fleets now have a pressing need to power EVs at scale. They are challenged by the fact that charging infrastructure at scale does not exist in the right place, at the right time, or of the right type necessary to support planned EV deployments.

They're also challenged by the complexity of siting, building, owning, and operating EV charging infrastructure without disrupting operations or investing significant time and upfront capital.

Access & Availability

“We have to ensure charging access when and where we need it; we can’t just hope a charging station is available.”

Emily Conway
Fleet Sustainability Manager, PepsiCo

Speed & Collaboration

“Infrastructure is really where we need collaboration with partners. We’re seeing 18-46 months until we get charging infrastructure; we need it quicker.”

Art Vallely
President, Penske Truck Leasing

Dedicated, Repeatable Routes

“EV holds so much promise if we can overcome the challenges. The #1 hurdle is a support system for refueling. We need dedicated, repeatable routes with central depots for recharge. We still face challenges siting, deploying equipment, and permitting.”

David Carson
SVP Sales/Marketing, Daimler Truck North America
