Fleets
Co-chaired by Peter Culin and Shaun Barnette
Our purpose is to identify and engage with fleet owners, operators, and sales organizations to transition fleet vehicles to plug-in electric.
DRIVE Electric Arizona assists fleets with information about government grants or tax credit programs, while connecting them with utilities, vehicle sales teams, and EVSE equipment providers to assist in the transition.
Fleets include utility vehicles, livery services, final mile delivery trucks and vans, regional and long haul trucking, school buses, service vehicles, public transportation, garbage trucks, and many others!
DRIVE Electric Arizona is looking for input from fleets about adopting electric vehicles. If you would like to share your fleet experience, please contact us to request the survey link.
We greatly appreciate your time and input!

Fortunately, many forward-looking fleets are committed to decreasing these emissions as they look to lower their carbon footprint”
