One of the biggest sources of electrification isn't your home or your neighbors', but the commercial fleets and trucks that power American business. Wex is a company doing fuel card services, but their EV charging solutions have taken off and they're continuing to invest in it despite federal headwinds.
In this episode of
Directly Current, host
Max Patten speaks to
Libby Bittman, the Business Development Director for EVs and Mobility at Wex. Previously, she's worked at companies like ChargePoint, ChargeLab, and Tesla. Libby also has an EV car, truck, and motorcycle in her household, so she's no stranger to the electric liffetyle. Max and Libby discuss how EV adoption continues to prove itself on cost of ownership merits in the commercial sector even without the White House's support. Regardless of politics, businesses love margins!
Some of the ground Max and Libby cover;
- Why Fuel Cards Need an EV Analogue
- Charging Hubs dedicated to business fleets
- Electric motorcycles are very fun, but unlike cars and light duty, aren't yet cost-competitive!
