Fleets can learn from these case studies, which are structured around some of the most common challenges and opportunities of electrification: community and business benefits, funding and strategic partnerships and getting started.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Community and business benefits<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: For City of Roses, DeSantis and MTRWESTERN, the switch to electric has aided the communities they serve. City of Roses CEO Alando Simpson said, \u201c&#8230;it\u2019s really a bright beacon for the youth in this community to see drivers that look like them, that are employed by a company that is owned by people that look like them providing sustainable solutions for their community.\u201d The transition has also unearthed business benefits that the fleets hadn\u2019t even considered. Amanda Emery, VP of Sales for MTRWESTERN said, \u201cIt has absolutely led to new business opportunities.\u201d The consensus from the fleets is clients have their own sustainability goals and are looking to work with companies that Dean DeSantis, President and owner of DeSantis Landscapes said are \u201ctrying to create a more climate positive business.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Funding and strategic partnerships<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Navigating electrification and calculating the associated costs can be a daunting task, which is why the three fleets emphasized how important it is to build relationships and share best practices with stakeholders and organizations embarking on the same or similar journeys. Transitioning to zero-emission vehicles also helps fleets save money over time through cumulative savings across fuel, maintenance and operations costs. In addition, there is a growing number of grants and other funding opportunities available for fleets to take advantage of now. \u201cIt&#8217;s great working with organizations like Breaking Barriers and EDF,\u201d said Bill Kent, City of Roses Director of Growth, \u201cbecause of their knowledge of the funding that&#8217;s available out there, their ability to really kind of take your fleet planning to a new level and to really help you be able to evaluate the opportunities with electrification.\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Getting started<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Converting to a new technology can be an intimidating feat for a company, and some may be hesitant to get started. But as Jeremy Butzlaff, president of MTRWESTERN emphasized, &#8220;Get started now, and the other things will fall into place after that. &#8220;Participating in BBC\u2019s<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.breakingbarrierscollaborative.org\/about\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fleet Decarbonization Accelerator <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 a cohort-based program with a curriculum designed to help fleet operators build a decarbonization plan to transition to electric vehicles \u2014 is one way these fleets and many others have gotten started. Programs like BBC\u2019s Accelerator and EDF\u2019s<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.electricfleet.org\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fleet Electrification Solution Center<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> provide fleets with tools to start their electrification journey and can help empower them through camaraderie with other people and organizations in the industry.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Making the switch to electric trucks is complex, but it\u2019s doable. For fleets that may be hesitant to begin, the message from the three fleets interviewed was consistent: take the leap and just dive in. Funding opportunities are continuously popping up that fleets can take advantage of NOW \u2014 and finding the right partners to help you navigate these funding opportunities can be game-changing. As customers, communities and regulators expect companies to do their part in tackling climate and air pollution, integrating more zero-emission vehicles into a<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fleet can be a smart business move.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To learn more about how these fleets and others are navigating the journey on the road to electrification, visit<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/electricfleetstories\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">edf.org\/<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ElectricFleetStories<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, where you can watch videos and read in-depth case studies.
