When Sound Transit, one of our long-time telematics clients, established the goal of reducing GHG emissions and transitioning all energy use to carbon-free sources by 2050, including the introduction of the agency’s first battery electric vehicle (BEV) bus fleet, they turned to Sawatch Labs for assistance.

With strong local roots and a commitment to protecting the environment while providing affordable, reliable energy, Madison Gas and Electric turned to Sawatch Labs to conduct a fleet study at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. The study lasted about six months and focused on monitoring vehicle usage to project charging demand to inform a strategy for placing electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE).
