Fleet electrification
done right
Fleet electrification presents a significant opportunity for commercial fleet operators to lower their total cost of ownership while transforming their fleets to zero-emissions. However, this transition comes with real challenges. Fleets face significant grid constraints — from congestion to utility interconnection to rates and pricing — and success requires careful planning and precision-driven execution.
At Pave Power, we partner with commercial fleets to site, design, build, and manage the infrastructure needed to transform and scale electric vehicle (EV) and autonomous vehicle (AV) fleet operations.
We deliver turnkey energy and infrastructure solutions with faster timelines, lower costs, and the most innovative designs and best execution in the industry.
