The key to reliable and cost-efficient electric freight lies in accurate range modeling, also known as energy consumption modeling. In this blog post, we outline Einride's approach to collecting and processing electric truck data to implement range models that consistently achieve over 90% accuracy.

To reach international targets of reduced global warming, the transport industry needs to accelerate its transition towards electric. In order to go electric at scale you need to allow for a mixed brand fleet setup. You also need accurate range predictions for these brands. Given that different truck manufacturers use different data models makes this challenging. What if we could define a standard data format that we could map all truck data to, regardless of brand? Read on to learn how Einride is working with standardizing data to enable accurate and unbiased range models.
