Mapping Fleet Usage
Evaluating low-carbon fleets: electric, hydrogen, and biogas solutions

Before deciding between electricity, hydrogen, or biogas, a company must conduct a comprehensive analysis of its current fleet. A purely statistical approach (average vehicle age, total annual mileage) is insufficient. On-board telematics devices should be deployed over a representative period (at least four to six weeks) to collect real-world raw data:

• trip profiles (last-mile urban delivery, regional inter-site routes, long-distance trucking);

• driving cycles (congested urban, suburban, highway);

• actual payloads transported and variations in volume;

• vehicle downtime windows (overnight downtime, midday breaks, loading at docks).

This data makes it possible...
