At present, one in 20 new vans sold in the UK are battery powered and EV commercial vehicles continue to buck the downward trends of both the new van market overall and sales of diesel-powered vans that have fallen by 27.8 per cent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAt a time when everyone\u2019s focus is on the high fuel prices at the pumps, companies switching their van fleets towards electric is an easy and obvious way to considerably reduce their running costs,\u201d explains Peter McDonald, Director of Mobility at Ohme. \u201cSome companies have led the way by electrifying their van fleets, but many are still yet to make the move. Ohme\u2019s Home Pro smart charger can help companies to considerably reduce their running costs for those charging on a smart tariff, but also to help make them more sustainable by charging when renewable energy generation on the grid is at its highest.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Electrification of van fleets will also become increasingly important for companies as a growing number of UK cities look to introduce low emission or clean air zones on top of those already in existence. According to the latest figures from the Department for Transport, the average annual mileage of a van is around 13,000 miles with more than half remaining local and within 15 miles of their base on a typical day \u2013 a perfect usage profile for an electric van.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ohme\u2019s Home Pro smart charger can connect with the national grid in real time and automatically adjust its charging for drivers to take advantage of all the times of low price charging with smart electricity tariffs. The result is that electric van drivers and operators can typically save up to \u00a31000 by smart charging an electric van with an Ohme Home Pro charger compared to charging on standard electricity rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, Ohme is alone in offering drivers and operators the option to charge their electric van when renewable energy generation on the grid is at its highest, further lowering their CO2 impact and helping companies to meet corporate sustainability targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1008,"template":"","class_list":["post-711","news-and-press","type-news-and-press","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.8 (Yoast SEO v27.8) -
