Motiv Power Systems and EverCharge announced a nationwide reseller agreement to incorporate EverCharge charging stations and smart-charging power optimization solutions into the suite of Motiv Energy solutions for commercial EV fleets. Motiv will offer customers the option to bundle chargers with EVs and serve as primary support for fleet operators. This will be possible by combining Motiv EVs, Motiv Energy charging (by EverCharge), and SmartPower load management.
Both companies are committed to providing customer fleet depots with diverse, flexible power infrastructure to achieve EV goals and requirements. “The goal is to help customers build a charging infrastructure where fleets can make use of every minute of available non-peak energy without raising the peak demand of each facility,” says Tim Krauskopf, Motiv CEO. He says EverCharge brings expertise in large-scale load management, and as a result, has the potential to save fleets hundreds of thousands of dollars. EverCharge’s SmartPower management technology ensures every fleet truck is fully charged while saving money, Krauskopf says.
INTEGRATING TO BETTER DELIVER
Motiv Energy Solutions provides tailored charging infrastructure and deployment solutions to support customers’ fleet profiles, business goals, and scalability requirements. Additionally, Motiv designed its QuickStart program to enable rapid deployment of initial EV fleets or smaller locations.
“We are excited to bring EverCharge’s unique technology, load optimization, and smart charging benefits to our customers as they expand their fleets,” says Gary Schmidt, senior vice president of sales. “Enabling faster and more efficient electricity infrastructure options helps Motiv deliver on our mission of freeing fleets from fossil fuels and drive into a sustainable future.”
The companies also plan an expanded set of joint products. Further, Motiv will use real-time data from telematics and load management software to tailor charging packages for various fleet needs. The goal is to provide customers with pricing and optimization options based on certain factors. These factors include fleet profiles as well as geography, routing requirements, cost, facility loads, and deployment approach.
“At EverCharge we seek to create the best possible end user experience,” says Jason Appelbaum, CEO, EverCharge. “Expanding integration between the vehicle manufacturer and charging enables significant optimizations for customers. Our partnership will allow Motiv to work closer with their customers to reduce costs through data-driven decision-making. ”
