Running petrol, diesel, hybrid and electric vehicles can leave fleet managers working across separate fuel cards, charging systems and reimbursement processes.
Teletrac Navman’s new Energy Hub illustrates how fleet technology is beginning to bring those costs together, combining fuel transactions, charging activity, home-charging reimbursement and energy reporting within one platform.
The bigger opportunity for fleets is visibility.
Managers should be able to compare energy cost by vehicle and cost per mile regardless of whether that energy comes from diesel, depot electricity or a public charger.
That makes it easier to identify expensive charging behaviour, unusual fuel transactions and vehicles whose real operating costs differ materially from forecasts.
Before adding new software, fleets should check whether their existing telematics, fuel-card and charging providers can already share the necessary data.
The immediate objective should be a single, consistent measure of energy cost across the fleet.
As fleets electrify gradually rather than overnight, that visibility will become increasingly important for proving where EVs are delivering savings and where operational changes are still required.
