Load management and vehicle prioritization: you can have both
"I want site-wide power management so I save money on my utility bill, BUT I still want drivers to be able to fast charge on a designated opportunity charger."
This is one of the most common requests we hear from fleet operators. And it perfectly illustrates the principle that guides every feature we build.
One unifying principle
While Flipturn supports a wide set of power management features, there's one unifying principle: each feature exists because it addresses a real-world, existing fleet use case. We know that every fleet has different preferences for how to balance cost savings with priority charging, and it's important that charger energy management software flexibly accommodates what is best for each individual deployment.
A real-world example
Spokane Transit needed exactly this balance. They wanted site-wide power management to reduce their utility costs, but they also needed designated opportunity chargers where drivers could fast-charge mid-route without restrictions. Flipturn's flexible configuration made this possible: applying intelligent power management across the depot while exempting specific chargers that needed to deliver full power on demand.

Why flexibility matters
Cookie-cutter power management doesn't work for real fleets. Every depot has unique operational requirements, different vehicle types, varying route schedules, and distinct cost structures. Flipturn supports site-wide power limits with designated exemptions, FIFO prioritization with override capability, time-of-use optimization, per-charger power caps, and priority tiers for mission-critical vehicles.
The best energy management software adapts to your operations — not the other way around. That's what we've built at Flipturn, and it's why customers like Spokane Transit, Purolator, and Republic Services trust us to manage their charging infrastructure.
