The Challenge

WattEV has a high peak power demand and must ensure the on-time departure for trucks

WattEV, one of the largest electric truck operators in the U.S., is establishing truck charging infrastructure across different locations. Electric trucks have a high power demand, and WattEV operates large EV charging hubs. The operation needs to maintain a high uptime of their charging stations and manage the charging schedules of a large fleet of trucks efficiently to avoid peak hours. Moreover, the operations team coordinates with dispatch and operations teams to optimize truck routes and charging cycles, which is vital. Therefore, access to all charging data is essential.
