This Fuel Savings Estimator tool is designed to help you understand how much you might save on fuel costs when you convert your fleet from gasoline or diesel to electricity. Review various charging cost scenarios with different rate programs below. Begin by adding one of the vehicle types in your fleet, then add additional vehicle types to get a full picture of your savings opportunity. If you want to experiment with more simplified inputs, try our Simple Fleet Conversion Savings Estimator

STEP 2: Select an Electric Rate Plan
Your electric rate plan will be determined by the maximum capacity of the charging equipment you install. You may be able to design a more efficient charging plan that optimizes your energy costs by staggering vehicle charging times and using lower power charging equipment over a longer duration, rather than selecting the most powerful equipment that charges faster. This calculator estimates electricity costs using historical rates for BGE Supply customers; if you purchase your energy from another supplier your electricity cost may be different.
