Departure readiness
Vehicle count is not enough. Route energy, return time and departure priority set the charging task.
Fleets and logistics
Every vehicle ready before its next shift.
Charging infrastructure for depots, delivery, last-mile and high-utilization commercial fleets.
Application illustrationSOLUTION DESIGN PRIORITIES
A depot designed around dispatch.
Power envelope
Check transformer headroom and building load before assigning simultaneous charging power.
Operational handover
Test representative shifts, incomplete sessions and recovery paths with the operations team.
YOUR OPERATING GOALS
A depot that delivers charged vehicles—not just installed chargers.
For delivery, ride-hailing, rental, service and corporate fleets, success means every priority vehicle receives enough energy before departure while the depot stays inside its electrical limit.
Vehicle readiness
Charging priorities follow departure time, route energy and operating reserve.
Controlled demand
Dynamic allocation uses the available connection instead of assuming every charger runs at full power.
A workable yard
Equipment, cable reach, parking sequence and vehicle circulation are planned together.
Growth without redesign
Distribution, communications and physical space can be reserved for later vehicles and bays.
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
Choose power from the operating window.
Nameplate power is not the starting point. The useful question is how much energy each vehicle needs, and how long it remains parked.
| Application | Configuration | Selection rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Long overnight dwell, light fleet | 7 kW AC or 20–40 kW DC by bay strategy | Lower instantaneous demand can serve more parked vehicles. |
| Two shifts or short turnaround | 60–120 kW DC with managed priorities | Faster recovery for vehicles returning close to departure. |
| Large depot with mixed vehicles | 120–240 kW integrated or 240–720 kW distributed DC | Shared power supports different batteries and dwell windows. |
| Grid-constrained site | Load management, staged charging and optional storage study | Operations adapt to the site limit before costly expansion. |
FROM DESIGN TO HANDOVER
From fleet data to daily operation.
- 01

Audit the depot
Transformer capacity, peak demand, parking, cable routes and expansion space.
- 03
Simulate charging
Test power levels, concurrency and failure scenarios against the schedule.
- 04
Engineer and commission
Finalize equipment, protection, communications, installation and acceptance tests.
- 05
Operate and improve
Track readiness, energy, alarms and utilization; adjust rules as the fleet changes.

Ask about your project10 questions
01How much depot power do we really need?
We calculate energy that must be delivered inside real parking windows, then test concurrency and priorities. Adding every charger rating usually overstates the requirement.
02Can existing electrical capacity be enough?
Often a managed first phase is possible. The answer depends on base building load, transformer headroom, tariff rules and the fleet schedule.
03What happens when a vehicle returns late?
Priority rules can redirect available power toward the late vehicle while protecting other required departures.
04Can chargers serve different vehicle brands?
Yes when connector, voltage, communication and charging behavior are validated for each model.
05Can we begin with ten vehicles and grow?
Yes. Phase one should reserve panel capacity, conduits, network architecture and physical space where practical.
06Which operating reports are useful?
Departure readiness, energy by vehicle or site, charger availability, failed sessions, peak demand and utilization reveal whether the system is meeting the plan.
07What should a fleet charging pilot prove?
Test departure readiness, site demand limits, representative vehicles and recovery from interrupted sessions. Agree measurable acceptance criteria before procurement.
08How should seasonal energy variation be handled?
Use route-specific energy assumptions and an operating reserve appropriate to the fleet. Validate demanding seasonal cases rather than sizing only from a mild-weather average.
09Does each fleet vehicle need its own charger?
Not necessarily. Compare dwell time and charger sharing against queueing, staff time and vehicle movement. Dedicated bays simplify some operations; shared equipment needs a workable schedule.
10Can a new charging system be introduced without stopping the depot?
A staged cutover can be planned, but temporary charging, contractor access, electrical outages and safety boundaries must be agreed with depot operations before work begins.
