Curious how others are handling depot charging. We run 14 electric vans and two e-trucks on routes that return with 15-25% state of charge, and the overnight window is already tight. Adding four more vans means either load management or a transformer upgrade, and the utility quote was brutal.
For those running larger fleets: what has actually helped most, smart charging software, staggered shift starts, or just paying for more capacity? Also wondering how you handle payload losses on the truck side, since we give up roughly 400 kg versus diesel on the same body.
Real-world range in winter is still our biggest planning headache.
