Noodoe’s next-generation EV fleet management solution

Charging solutions provider Noodoe has announced a new generation of its Electric Fleet Management Solution.

Noodoe’s EV OS is a cloud-based operating system for managing all aspects of EV charging services. “Fleet integration happens in a few clicks, and administrators can easily manage vehicles, telematics devices and EV charging stations,” says the company. “Managers can assign and reassign telematics devices, moving them from gas-powered to electric vehicles seamlessly.”

The Noodoe Fleet Management Solution integrates with new and existing telematics devices to provide the live status of every fleet vehicle, including current battery levels when in the field or the amount of energy transferred when charging. Noodoe EV OS manages both vehicles and charging stations. Integrated dynamic load balancing and smart scheduling allow fleet charging times to be managed autonomously—set a departure time, and the system will automatically arrange its power distribution priorities to ensure that each vehicle meets its deadline.

“The ever-increasing intricacies of fleet management brought about by the EV revolution have disrupted the way companies worldwide do business,” said Jennifer Chang, Noodoe’s CEO. “Noodoe’s advanced Fleet Management Solution streamlines electrification efforts, easing the transition to electric vehicles.”
