Program Overview

This program focuses on the technical, operational, and financial aspects of electric vehicle fleet deployment. Participants will explore fleet planning methodologies, route optimisation, charging infrastructure requirements, vehicle scheduling, fleet economics, and decision-making frameworks that support successful EV adoption across public transport, logistics, and commercial mobility applications.

Key Topics Include:

Introduction to E-Mobility & EV Ecosystems: Understanding global e-mobility trends, electric vehicle technologies, vehicle subsystems, and the factors driving fleet electrification worldwide.
Data-Driven Fleet Planning: Collection and analysis of operational data, fleet assessment methodologies, vehicle energy consumption modelling, and fleet planning tools used for decision-making.
Route, Depot & Network Planning: Route selection, depot planning, corridor planning for freight operations, and network design considerations for efficient EV fleet deployment.
Charging Infrastructure & Energy Planning: Charging strategies, charger selection, energy demand estimation, infrastructure sizing, and integration of charging networks into fleet operations.
Fleet Scheduling & Operations Management: Vehicle scheduling, route allocation, fleet optimisation techniques, disruption management, operational resilience, and trade-off analysis.
Fleet Economics & Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): Understanding capital expenditure, operational expenditure, lifecycle costs, financial modelling, and TCO assessment across two-wheelers, three-wheelers, passenger vehicles, trucks, and buses.
Fleet Transition & Implementation Strategies: Vehicle specification development, fleet electrification planning, retrofitment considerations, mixed fleet operations, and practical approaches to EV adoption.
Real-World Challenges & Risk Mitigation: Addressing operational, financial, infrastructure, and policy challenges while identifying mitigation strategies for successful EV fleet deployment.

This program equips learners with the tools and methodologies required to plan, evaluate, and manage electric vehicle fleets while balancing operational efficiency, infrastructure requirements, and financial viability.
