We’re excited to announce that Flipturn, the unified control center for EV fleet and charger operations, has joined Geotab’s Sustainability Alliance and become a Geotab Marketplace partner.
Flipturn's Geotab integration gives users access to key functionality for optimizing EV and charging operations. Flipturn is telematics-agnostic and integrates with several third-party platforms, but many customers run on Geotab for its industry-leading EV support.
“Today, we are excited to welcome Flipturn into our Sustainability Alliance,” said Eric Mallia, Vice President Sustainability Solutions at Geotab. “Flipturn connects detailed EV data from Geotab to charger and energy data to give fleets an advanced level of insight into their EV operations, uptime, and costs. Together, Flipturn and Geotab empower customers to access the data needed to optimize their EV and charger operations, all in one fully-integrated, comprehensive solution.”
The Geotab Sustainability Alliance of over 25 solution and service providers is dedicated to creating cutting-edge solutions to help fleets operate efficiently and reduce their carbon footprint. Alliance partner solutions seamlessly integrate with Geotab to accelerate the efficiency gains and decarbonization efforts of fleets.
Read on to learn more about features in our platform that Geotab and Flipturn customers utilize today, right out of the box.
Advanced analytics spanning cost per mile, energy efficiency, and more
For mutual Geotab and Flipturn customers who agree to the integration, Geotab provides detailed vehicle energy data into Flipturn, powering fleet and vehicle efficiency analytics. That data also feeds cost per mile, which requires three inputs: vehicle energy consumption, charging session data, and utility rates.
Flipturn's fleet efficiency analytics surface regenerative braking, kWh per mile, cost per mile, and more. Fleet managers use these insights to coach drivers on operating EVs efficiently and identify electricity cost savings.
Real-time visibility into state of charge
Flipturn can pull data from Geotab’s API in real time, allowing visibility into current and historical state of charge. Using historical data on each vehicle’s prior charging sessions, Flipturn is able to accurately predict the time at which the vehicle will reach 90% charged, giving fleet managers foresight into when each vehicle will be ready to go.
Proactive alerts on low state of charge
Real-time state of charge data from Geotab can power Flipturn’s low state of charge alerts. Users can configure text or email alerts on state of charge through the Flipturn dashboard, alerting you when a vehicle is at risk of running out of range before it is able to reach a charger.
Range estimation and historical range reporting
Using trip data from telematics platforms like Geotab, Flipturn predicts current vehicle range based on historical data. Flipturn's historical range reporting also helps fleet managers understand how range varies by route, cargo load, temperature, and other factors.
Vehicle-based charger management
Flipturn's vehicle-aware charger management automatically minimizes utility costs by combining energy management site-wide constraints with fleet management vehicle priority rules. Historical vehicle data from Geotab can be one input into how Flipturn is able to predict how changes in vehicle charging priority will affect the estimated time to charging completion, as seen in the screenshot below.
