SYDNEY, Sept. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The transportation sector is one of the largest contributors to carbon emissions in Australia and one that is well placed to drive electrification in the short term. Over the past several years, Australia has witnessed a significant transformation in the commercial sector with a surge in the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs). According to The Electric Vehicle Council's State of Electric Vehicles 2023 report, Australia has seen a 120% increase in the number of EV's sold in 2023 compared to 2022. It is important to note that the majority of EV sales have been made up of only three models which represent over 58% of the EV market. This shift is not just a testament to technological advancements but also to the power of data intelligence. With access to quality data insights from commercial vehicles, organisations in Australia can make more informed decisions about how to successfully integrate EVs into their fleets, including a wide range of makes and models.
"EVs are playing a key role in reducing our carbon footprint, and they can also offer compelling operational cost savings and increased efficiency," said Neil Cawse, CEO of Geotab. "There is a remarkable transition in EV adoption taking place, and the companies experiencing the greatest success are utilising data intelligence to inform, adjust and drive decisions that impact their business and the planet. It's truly a double bottom line."
"The growing adoption of EVs across Australia signifies a significant stride towards sustainable transportation." said David Brown, Assistant VP, APAC, Geotab. "We are confident in our role as a driving force in supporting this demand and facilitating transformative changes within organisations in Australia. Geotab's solutions such as Electric Vehicle Range Analysis, and Fleet Electrification Knowledge Center provide useful data insights for EV integration to empower businesses across Australia in their journey towards sustainable and data-driven operations.
