Fibrus

The Challenge

Fibrus, a forward-thinking company committed to sustainability, embarked on a journey to embrace electric vehicles (EVs) as part of its broader environmental strategy. However, Fibrus faced the challenge of establishing a robust and scalable charging infrastructure to support its growing EV fleet while seamlessly integrating into its operations.

The Solution

Partnering with Weev, a leading provider of end-to-end EV charging solutions, Fibrus found the perfect ally to address its challenges. Weev offered a comprehensive solution tailored to Fibrus’ needs, encompassing high-quality charging hardware, an intuitive software platform, and scalability to accommodate Fibrus’ evolving requirements.

Implementation

With precision, Weev’s team worked closely with Fibrus to implement the solution seamlessly. The installation and configuration of charging stations, integration of the software platform, and comprehensive training for Fibrus’ staff were executed with minimal downtime, ensuring uninterrupted operations.

Results

Improved Sustainability: Fibrus significantly reduced its carbon footprint by transitioning to an electric fleet and utilising clean energy for charging, aligning perfectly with its sustainability goals.

Operational Efficiency: Real-time monitoring and management capabilities provided by Weev enhanced Fibrus’ operational efficiency, ensuring optimal usage of the charging infrastructure.

Scalability: As Fibrus’ EV fleet continued to grow, the charging infrastructure seamlessly scaled to accommodate increased demand, demonstrating the flexibility of Weev’s solution.

Positive Stakeholder Perception: Fibrus’ commitment to sustainability and efforts to electrify its fleet were positively received by customers, employees, and the wider community, enhancing its reputation as an environmentally responsible organisation.

Conclusion

Fibrus’ strategic partnership with Weev has not only addressed immediate challenges but positioned the company for a greener and more sustainable future. By embracing proactive sustainability measures and leveraging innovative solutions, Fibrus exemplifies the positive impact that companies can have on both their operations and reputation as the world transitions towards cleaner energy solutions.

EV charging point operator Weev designed, connected and installed the products.

Sharon McGregor, fleet, facilities and office manager at Fibrus, said:

The major benefit of having them is how fast they are.

Fibrus installs a charging point at the homes of team members who have electric vehicles. That could take roughly eight hours to charge so they would normally leave their EV charging overnight.

The charging points at Dargan are much quicker. For example, with the raid charging unit you get 200 miles of range in just one hour and you should be able to charge a full battery in 90 minutes.

McGregor added:

By the end of 2023 we’re hoping to have at least 30 percent of our fleet fully electric and the aim by the end of 2024 is to have it 60 per cent fully electric.
