TL;DR
Fleet charging load is the aggregate electrical demand created when multiple EVs — delivery vans, service trucks, shuttle cars — charge at one facility, the figure that drives service sizing, transformer capacity, and utility coordination for depot projects. Designers model arrival times, state of charge, and dwell windows rather than summing nameplate ratings, because managed charging spreads sessions to flatten the peak.
What it means
Fleet charging load is the aggregate electrical demand created when multiple EVs — delivery vans, service trucks, shuttle cars — charge at one facility, the figure that drives service sizing, transformer capacity, and utility coordination for depot projects. Designers model arrival times, state of charge, and dwell windows rather than summing nameplate ratings, because managed charging spreads sessions to flatten the peak. Demand charges on commercial rates make load management the difference between a viable depot and a budget-killing one.
