Determining the best way to integrate electric vehicles (EVs) into your fleet can be a challenge for even the most veteran fleet professional. With more EV models becoming available along with a variety of charging options – at-home charging, centralized charging depots, and public infrastructure – determining the ideal solution for your fleet and developing a best practice strategy can certainly feel overwhelming – but it doesn’t have to be.

McKinstry, a leading national construction and energy services organization and long-standing Holman customer, began transitioning its fleet to EVs in 2022 as part of the company’s efforts to reduce emissions and run a net zero operation by 2030. Recently, Automotive Fleet highlighted McKinstry’s fleet electrification journey to offer readers a first-hand perspective on adding electric vehicles to the fleet mix.

In the article, McKinstry’s Brian Fisher and Nicholas Davidson discussed the company’s organizational and fleet-specific sustainability goals, a key factor in the transition to EVs. Brian and Nicholas also noted the importance of engaging fleet stakeholders from the onset and keeping them informed throughout the entire process, particularly fleet drivers.

Holman’s Jeremy Dewey echoed that sentiment and shared why simplifying administrative tasks such as reimbursing drivers for energy consumption at home is vital for providing a positive experience.

Brian and Nicholas also shared how McKinstry navigated skepticism about the transition to EVs and discussed why it is important for their organization to be among the sustainability leaders in their industry. Finally, Brian and Nicholas offered a glimpse at the road ahead as they prepare to integrate 100 Chevrolet Silverado EVs into their fleet over the next year-plus.
