What are the main challenges of fleet electrification?

Electrification is promising but presents challenges that must be anticipated: 1.

**Total Cost of Ownership (TCO):** Although the purchase cost is higher, the complete TCO must be analyzed, including savings on fuel and maintenance, as well as government incentives.

2.

**Range and Range Anxiety:** It is crucial to choose EVs with a range suitable for the drivers' actual routes and to reassure them of their ability to complete their day.

3.

**Charging Infrastructure:** This is the major challenge.

It's necessary to plan where, when, and how to charge the vehicles (at the depot, at the driver's home, at public stations) and ensure sufficient electrical power is available.

4.

**Change Management:** Drivers must be trained in EV-specific eco-driving (regenerative braking), and managers must be trained on new operational constraints (charging management).
