Source
A system includes multiple charging stations, multiple fleet electric vehicles, and a computer. The charging stations are provided at a facility. The fleet electric vehicles are charged by the charging stations per a schedule. The fleet electric vehicles are operational to perform multiple tasks on multiple routes dispersed over multiple days. The computer is in communication with the charging stations and is operational to generate the schedule to charge the fleet electric vehicles over the multiple days with a two-stage process. The schedule is based on a first number of the charging stations ready to charge, a second number of the fleet electric vehicles ready to be charged, a plurality of state-of-charges in the fleet electric vehicles upon arrival and already present at the facility, and a plurality of energy consumption levels associated with the plurality of routes.
