Focused on producing clean energy with renewable sources, Italy-based multinational energy group Enel employs more than 67,000 professionals in 30 countries.
Taking care of the company’s fleet in North America is Senior Fleet Manager Patrick Mitchell. He manages just over 400 vehicles which are primarily made up of light duty pickup trucks and SUVs.?
Boasting more than 110,000 EV charging stations and at least 4,500 customers, Enel North America has a Renewable Capacity of 8 GW and a Direct Response capacity of 4.7 GW.
“From a driver’s perspective, as we also have several employees that work in the office, I’d say that we are looking at approximately 750 drivers in our fleet,” says Mr. Mitchell.
Most of the vehicles are focused on supporting mobility at the company’s facilities currently under construction in both The?United States?and?Canada, as well as those which are already operating (wind, solar, geothermal, battery storage).?
“In terms of fleet management savings, the first thing that really comes to mind to me is data,” says the fleet manager.?
You really need to understand where you're starting from so that you know what needs to be done to achieve savings. First acquire fleet information (e.g. fuel usage and the number of accidents) and then evaluate this information and recognize the trends at hand.?Read more here...
