Are you still scheduling your #EV charging based on a fleet-wide average eMPG and average seasonal weather? Did you know that there’s a better way? Our #AI-powered solutions revolutionize EV operations by providing highly optimized, vehicle-specific charging schedules automatically and in real time. Imagine knowing exactly how much energy each EV will need for the routes it will drive today, considering the weather, the terrain, the specific characteristics of that route, and the specific vehicle assigned to those routes. With WideSense, this is the reality. Our advanced models predict each EV's unique consumption and tailors charging schedules to ensure your fleet runs at peak efficiency. Here’s what you can expect when integrating WideSense with your charge management: 🚌 Precision Energy Predictions: Understand the exact energy needs for each EV based on its unique consumption profile. 🔌 Optimized Charging Schedules: Automatic scheduling ensures EVs are charged efficiently and ready for their routes. ⚡ Cost Savings: Smart scheduling and energy market price and tariff optimization reduce overall energy costs. 🔋 Battery Health Management: Extend the life of your EV batteries by managing charge cycles effectively. 🌍 Eco-Friendly Economical Operations: Minimize peak power demands and reduce your max peak depot and charger requirements. Don’t settle for outdated methods. Embrace enhanced charge management with WideSense and transform your electric bus operations. Got questions? Ask away! 🙌

🚀 Recapping APTATech 2024: Key Insights for the Future of Transit 🚀 What an incredible experience at #APTATech 2024 in #Philadelphia! Our panel on “Decarbonization Plans and Tools to Successfully Transition Your Fleet to Zero Emissions” was a highlight, and WideSense is thrilled to have been part of it. A huge thank you to everyone who attended, making it a packed room with more great audience questions than we could make time for! It was a lot of fun, and we're grateful to Heikki's fellow panelists and our moderator for an engaging and insightful discussion. As for the agenda overall, a few key takeaways really stood out: 🌍 Zero Emissions: The target is real and top of mind for transit agencies nationwide. The path to achieving it is complex, but the commitment is unwavering. ⛽ Hydrogen Hype: The excitement around hydrogen seems to be cooling off a bit as agencies delve into the total cost of ownership (TCO) and recognize the substantial expenses involved in sourcing and delivering fuel. 🤖 AI in Transit: There was a lot of discussion around AI. The consensus? Agencies need to be strategic in identifying where AI can generate real value. 🚌 Driver Shortages: This is a persistent challenge that isn’t going away. AI-optimized planning and scheduling presents a significant opportunity to deliver more rides with fewer drivers. At WideSense, we’re excited to be part of this ongoing conversation, helping agencies navigate these challenges with AI-powered solutions that drive both environmental and financial benefits. #APTAtech #FleetElectrification #AI #Sustainability #ZeroEmissions #Transit American Public Transportation Association
