Lombard Shipping
The Challenge
As Lombard Shipping began to add electric vehicles to its fleet, the company realized that it needed a way to manage its EV charging infrastructure. The company needed a solution that would allow it to:
- Manage its charging stations remotely: This would allow the company to monitor the status of its charging stations and troubleshoot any problems.
- Optimize its charging schedules: This would allow the company to charge its vehicles when energy prices are lowest.
- Track its energy usage: This would allow the company to see how much energy its electric vehicles are using and identify areas where it can save money.
