Transport for London (TfL) has analysed its vehicle telematics data and operational patterns over a 12-month period to optimise the electrification of its engineering service fleet.
TfL optimised its fleet through data collected from 356 locations, including depots, Tube stations, offices, and bus stations via Dynamon’s Zero software.
Out of the 356 sites analysed across TfL’s support fleet, 36 primary locations were identified for installing dedicated fleet-only charging infrastructure.
These identified sites would cover 90% of the fleet’s energy demand, potentially reducing the number of chargers required by 43%, with charger sharing strategies improving charger utilisation by 35%.
If implemented according to the proposal, the fleet’s reliance on public charging could be reduced by 25%.
Additionally, 50% of TfL’s fleet recommended as suitable for immediate electrification with infrastructure at key locations, requiring no schedule or route changes.
The remaining 50% were marked as either needs minor adjustments to be electrified or in need of additional charging solutions which require further assessment by TfL.
CEO of Dynamon Angus Webb said: “Our Zero software is designed to provide actionable insights and cost-effective strategies for fleet electrification, and we are proud to see it making a significant impact for TfL in their journey towards a zero-emission future.
“This partnership demonstrates how data-driven solutions can enable large organisations with complex fleet requirements to transition confidently, efficiently and sustainably to electric vehicles.”
Achievements and innovations in public transport will be recognised and celebrated at the fourth annual CiTTi Awards on 25 November 2025 at De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in London. Visit www.cittiawards.co.uk to learn more about this unmissable event for the UK’s transportation sector!
