Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What is the Sustainability Center and what does it do?
The Sustainability Center is a tool within the MyGeotab platform that provides data-driven insights to help fleets track, manage and improve their fuel economy and environmental performance. It focuses on reducing fuel consumption and emissions, supporting the transition to electric vehicles and streamlining sustainability reporting, making it simpler to manage sustainable practices across diverse fleets.
How can the Sustainability Center help reduce my fleet's costs?
The Sustainability Center helps identify areas to cut costs (such as idling and electrification) by providing data-backed insights into fuel and energy consumption. It allows you to monitor metrics like fuel economy and idling time, pinpointing inefficiencies. By optimizing fuel use and reducing idling, you can enhance fleet efficiency and improve your bottom line.
How does the Sustainability Center help reduce emissions?
The tool identifies opportunities to reduce emissions through strategies such as emissions trend monitoring, idling reduction and fleet electrification. It tracks metrics like emissions intensity, absolute tailpipe emissions, and avoided emissions from the introduction of electric vehicles into the fleet, and provides tools to assess the suitability of EVs for your fleet.
What kind of data does the Sustainability Center provide?
The tool monitors and provides data on multiple metrics, including:
- Emissions metrics:
- Absolute tailpipe emissions
- Emissions intensity
- Avoided tailpipe emissions
- Fuel metrics:
- Total fuel and EV energy use
- Fuel and EV energy economy
- Idling metrics:
- Total emissions and fuel use from idling
- Preventable idling emissions and fuel use
- Idling time
- Idling exception count
- Electrification
- Recommended number of vehicles that can be replaced with EVs
- Associated potential emissions savings
The Sustainability Center displays long-term trends and allows you to view aggregated and group-level fuel and emissions data in one place. It provides a percentage change (increase or decrease) for the selected time period, compared to the previous time period. It also allows for benchmarking actual emissions against set reduction targets.
How does the Sustainability Center address idling?
The Sustainability Center allows you to:
- Measure fuel wasted due to idling and identify the emissions associated with preventable idling.
- Investigate idling exceptions to highlight your greatest opportunities to reduce emissions and wasted fuel.
- Rank customized vehicle groups based on idling to pinpoint improvement opportunities, optimize performance by group and reduce fuel costs.
How does the Sustainability Center support transitioning to electric vehicles?
The tool provides an electrification readiness assessment to identify vehicles suitable for EV replacement. It offers a snapshot of EV suitability for your operations, based on factors like vehicle class and range capability. It also links to Geotab’s Electric Vehicle Suitability Assessment (EVSA) tool for a more detailed analysis of your fleet’s potential for electrification that includes financial considerations and market-specific EV model recommendations.
Who is the Sustainability Center designed for?
The tool is designed for fleet directors, fleet managers/operations personnel and sustainability, ESG and compliance professionals. It is valuable for any fleet committed to maximizing fuel savings and minimizing environmental impact.
