Intelligent Vehicle Rotation

Maximize charger use by scheduling terminal tractor rotation

Eliminate idle time and reduce hardware costs by rotating electric terminal tractors through shared chargers based on departure needs and state-of-charge. Automated charge scheduling ensures each vehicle is charged just in time, reducing charger count and improving throughput without compromising readiness.

  • Avoid charging congestion
  • Match vehicles to charger slots
  • Minimize total charger footprint

Multi-Day Charging Forecasts

Schedule charging days in advance based on real port operations

Use long-range scheduling to forecast energy and charger needs over several days. The system dynamically adapts to shifting terminal workloads, delays, and updates in vehicle availability. Ensure readiness without last-minute scrambles or inefficient plug-ins.

  • Predictive fleet charging
  • Adapt to route delays
  • Time-aligned charging cycles

FAQs

Why do ports need charge scheduling?

Charge scheduling minimizes charger requirements, ensures vehicle readiness, and aligns with constrained depot power availability.

Can this system work with terminal tractors?

Yes. It is specifically designed to rotate and schedule terminal tractors for efficient charging based on operational needs and battery levels.

How does this reduce capital expenditure?

By enabling multiple vehicles to share fewer chargers efficiently, scheduling reduces the number of chargers and associated installation costs.

Does this integrate with existing port systems?

Yes. The scheduler integrates with Terminal Operating Systems (TOS), vehicle telematics, and energy management systems for seamless operation.

Is energy management included?

Absolutely. The system optimizes for peak shaving, load distribution, and use of renewable energy sources like solar and BESS.

Can it adjust for unexpected delays?

Yes. Real-time data and dynamic rescheduling allow the system to adapt to changes in vehicle status, availability, and port flow.
