EV & Sustainability-How can I get started on EV transition?

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Adam Seifert explains part two of AFLA’s EV learning module, focusing on moving from EV planning into implementation and ongoing operations. He emphasizes defining pilot success with clear safety, operational, driver experience, cost, and emissions criteria, not just uptime or utilization. The talk covers stakeholder roles, feedback loops, sequencing vehicle and charging infrastructure, and deciding when a pilot has matured into full deployment. He then outlines four EV fleet management domains: procurement, operations, change management, and data. Key points include validating vehicle specs and charging strategies, training drivers and technicians, monitoring uptime and charging performance, integrating EV and charger data, and comparing EV vs. ICE benchmarks. He closes by urging fleets to shift from project management to capability-building, from planning to real performance, and from compliance to engagement.
