How can you support your employees in the transition to electric mobility?
The transition to electric mobility is a major issue for today’s companies, and comes with a number of challenges. Among the most important: implementing an effective charging policy, guaranteeing charging at home and at work, while supporting employees as they make the switch. In our last webinar, we shared our advice and solutions with you. Here’s a summary of the key points that were raised.
The benefits of an energy transition
- It’s more environmentally friendly for your company: 80% reduction in consumption on average and 50% reduction in CO2 emissions compared with an internal combustion engine*.
- More economical: the cost of charging is lower than that of petrol or diesel, and taxation is more beneficial for electric vehicles.
- Greater comfort for your employees: electric vehicles are silent, comfortable and offer a pleasant driving experience.
*According to the ADEM report on the vehicle life cycle (manufacture, use, disposal).
Challenges and obstacles
Despite these advantages, the transition to an electric fleet raises a number of challenges:
- Implementing a comprehensive charging policy prior to the delivery of electric vehicles.
- Guaranteeing charging at all three charging points (public, home, workplace) to ensure TCO (Total Cost of Ownership).
- Getting employees to embrace the change.
Solutions for company fleets
Chargemap Business offers tailored solutions to effectively manage EV charging in three main locations: on the road, at home and at work.
E-roaming
E-Roaming involves public charging points on motorways, in town centres and in supermarket car parks. Fleet managers can assign charging cards to employees or vehicles, enabling centralised management of costs and consumption. With more than 530,000 compatible charging points in Europe, including 120,000 in France, Chargemap offers extensive, reliable coverage for all users.
Charging at work
Installing charging points on company sites means that vehicles can be charged at a lower cost and during more suitable times (nights, meals, etc.). The charging points are monitored to ensure they are working properly and to control access according to the company’s needs. A Pro Supervision solution enables the energy consumed by employees or visitors to be billed via their personal Chargemap card.
Charging at home
For employees charging their vehicle at home, the company can install charging points or a connected cable that send the charging data back. This data can then be used to automatically reimburse charging costs via expenses claims generated in the Chargemap Business app.
