Making the Right Decisions
through modeling and optimization.
Planning is the first crucial step in fleet electrification as decisions made in this stage could have the highest impact on system performance. These include decisions on charging strategy, vehicle battery size, charging infrastructure, energy infrastructure, and operating schedules, all of which are highly interdependent.
The EVOPT solution exists to balance these considerations, helping you to efficiently and cost-effectively electrify your fleet.
Fleet Electrification Solutions
The EVOPT software package consists of two components—EVOPT Controller and EVOPT Planner. Learn more about each of our fleet electrification solutions below:
Fleet Electrification Planning Tool
EVOPT Planner
EVOPT Planner takes a systematic approach to transitioning to an electric fleet by optimizing the design of the fleet electrification system.
Fleet Operations Management Tool
EVOPT Controller
EVOPT Controller actively manages the charging process in real-time to provide a complete depot management system.
Why EVOPT?
EVOPT is a software platform for modeling, simulation, and optimization of fleet electrification systems for fleets of all sizes.
Minimize Cost
Optimize charging schedule and size of vehicle battery, charging infrastructure and energy infrastructure (including onsite solar PV and battery storage).
Guarantee Operations
Validate the design through end to end simulation of the driving and charging process and through “what if” analysis for custom scenarios.
Mitigate Risks
Assess the impact of variability in input data, future changes to routes, schedules, and emergency events like power outages and charger breakdowns.
What Our Customers Say
EVOPT is designed to support transit agencies, fleet operators, and consultants in planning their electrification projects. Read what a few of our users have to say about the software.
“We had been searching for a data analytics tool for transit fleet electrification and ended our search when we found EVOPT. EVOPT software has the potential to address a crucial, previously unmet need in bus fleet electrification.”
– Fleet Operator (USA)
“Microgrid Labs is fulfilling a big market need by offering a turnkey solution to electric fleet infrastructure planning. I would highly recommend any fleet operator to engage MGL for all their electrification planning needs.”
