Illustrative case study

Fleet depot charging infrastructure

A northern logistics depot needs chargers for its own vehicles. That is a different project from destination or public charging. The first work is electrical capacity and a delivery estimate. An operator model may be irrelevant.

Vehicles, dwell time and incoming supply

A logistics depot that needs charging for its own fleet. The first questions are electrical capacity and a grounded install cost — not a public charging business model.

Starting position

The operator of the depot knows how many vehicles return overnight. Incoming power and install cost are unknown.

Requirement

A power assessment and infrastructure costing against vehicle numbers, dwell time and any known supply constraint.

Information needed

  • Fleet size and charging window
  • Who controls the depot electrics
  • Incoming supply as far as known
  • Whether chargers are for own fleet only

  3. Infrastructure costing
  4. Funding if required

What this example demonstrates

  • Fleet charging is operational infrastructure, not a public CPO pitch by default
  • Power is usually the binding constraint
  • Costing comes before a capital conversation
