State of Sustainable Fleets Report Provides Fleet Insights on Clean Tech

The on-road transportation industry is at a critical inflection point. While diesel and gasoline have dominated for decades, the industry is seeing a shift where clean and advanced vehicle technologies are competing on the metrics most essential to fleet managers—performance, range, and an overall total cost of ownership. Until now, there was no single industry resource that assessed numerous trends, technologies, and fleet insights across sectors, leaving fleets to navigate the complex and ever-changing world of clean and advanced vehicle technologies largely on their own.

The State of Sustainable Fleets is the first industry resource to examine current use and anticipated adoption trends of clean and advanced vehicles.

A First-of-Its Kind Resource

Data gathered directly from fleet owners and operators across the U.S. makes the State of Sustainable Fleets, a new report launched this month, the first comprehensive industry resource to examine the current use and anticipated adoption trends of clean and advanced vehicles across sectors.

The report includes the most prevalent sustainable vehicle platforms for medium- and heavy-duty fleets —including natural gas, propane, battery electric (BEVs), and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs)—and compares them to a baseline of diesel and gasoline vehicles. The report analyzes these vehicle platforms across public, private, and for-hire fleets, including school, municipal/shuttle, urban delivery, refuse, utility, transit, short-haul, and long-haul sectors.
