Electric cars are not just zero.
Emissions and driving are quieter and more enjoyable, and in most cases they also significantly reduce CO2 emissions associated with climate change.
However, for fleet operators who charge large electric vehicles overnight, the grid load and the attendant demand costs pose a major problem.
The solution to this problem is energy storage, in which case large battery banks will charge steadily during the day, especially when the energy is the cheapest and probably the most eco-friendly.

On a hybrid truck, the cost of transportation does not exceed the cost of regular transportation. One of the world's largest fleet operators has begun testing the solution, along with more than 100 electric vans serving London's fleet.
Global package-
Delivery services said on Wednesday it had worked with off-grid energy to solve a specific problem.
This is the time and cost for the UK grid service to upgrade the power supply capacity of the Central London warehouse, from which UPS plans to operate its vans.
These companies will install grid energy's Ingenium universal battery energy storage system, which can dynamically adjust the charging of all vehicles connected to the system.
The system caps the peak load of the power grid required by the depot and monitors the local substation to ensure that the load does not exceed the preset level.
If the charging Van requires more power than the grid, the system will mix energy from the battery storage system.

In addition, when the Ingenium system does not support charging UPS vans, it can provide power grid stabilization services to power companies.

The benefit of layering is that this technology provides solutions to grid problems with limited capacity and provides network support services that together ensure the ongoing efforts of assets, said Danny Jones, CEO of energy.

While it's still too early, experiments like UPS London installation and Tesla's commitment to renewable energy generation at the Supercharger DC charging site depict a very different energy future.

While individual car buyers often overestimate the miles they drive and overbuy the vehicles they need, fleet operators know their costs and know exactly what they will use.
