Under the Genius Fleet program, EO manages charger commissioning onto EO Cloud, monitors chargers to preemptively address issues, and offers optional on-site services for optimal charger performance, all backed by a five-year warranty.

Geared towards fleets with adequate dwell times or shorter routes, this charging solution aims to simplify perceptions of electric depot design and installation, making the transition to all-electric more accessible, with no upfront costs.
