T
ransitioning to more ecofriendly
technologies and
business practices has many
environmental and financial benefits,
but it's often easier said than done.
Many advantages of managing
a green fleet take time to show
meaningful gains, and it's not
always clear which strategy is best.
Consequently, you must measure
the impact of the changes you make
to understand their efficacy and
guide future improvements. With
that in mind, here's how you can
create and track an effective green
fleet initiative.
CHOOSE WHICH METRICS
TO TARGET
The first step in measuring any
sustainability project's impact is
determining which factors matter most
to the company. Tailpipe emissions are
an obvious target for green fleets, but
they're not the only option.
Environmental impact is often
complex, requiring attention to
multiple metrics. While vehicle
electrification will eliminate tailpipe
emissions, according to the EIA, 60
percent of U.S. electricity comes
from fossil fuels. A more accurate
analysis would also track the CO2
equivalent from a fleet's electrical
usage. Miles driven and idling times
are other less obvious sustainabilityaffecting
factors to consider.
Non-environmental factors may
also be worth measuring to provide
a business perspective on the
strategy's impact. These may include
fuel costs, maintenance expenses,
vehicle depreciation, tax payments
and any changes in client spending.
All such metrics can be valuable,
but it's best to identify a few that
matter most to your goals to simplify
the project.
IMPLEMENT RELEVANT
TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
Once you know which factors you
want to focus on, you need to find
applicable tracking solutions. In some
cases, you may not require much, if
any, additional investment. You can
gauge electric vehicle (EV) chargingrelated
emissions through your utility
