Earth Day 2022: Daloop.Earth carbon calculator shows benefits of electrifying fleets
A new carbon calculator platform that shows the fleet benefits of going electric has launched for Earth Day 2022.
It’s been developed by Daloop, formerly known as GoWithFlow and a specialist in sustainable mobility management, and leverages data and insights to illustrate the projected positive impact of each company’s fleet electrification journey.
The Daloop.Earth carbon calculator combines easy-to-understand analytics and one simple number from the user to reflect the potential carbon reduction of transitioning to an electric fleet.
The projected carbon saving, measured in tons of CO2, is helpfully illustrated with a range of easily identifiable objects, from Volkswagen Beetle to saltwater crocodiles. Users need only supply one piece of information by answering the question “How many vehicles are in your fleet?”.
It’s part of Daloop’s work to enable the decarbonisation of combustion engines as it expands its footprint across the globe, including significant expansion into the UK, Spain and the US.
Drawing on its experience and expertise from working with key organisations in Portugal on their electrification journey, Daloop develops and provides software and services that enable business around the world to decarbonise their fleets, whilst delivering ‘back-office’ services for charge point operators and e-mobility service providers.
Its Mobility Change Platform (MCP) helps solves issues within the EV charging ecosystem, providing data-driven mobility management software that allows users to find and reserve available charging stations and presents a platform through which organisations can schedule, pay and audit charging across their fleets.
Financially backed by Galp Energia, the team has already built and operated an integrated national EV charging infrastructure that now administers over one million charges a month and has a goal of connecting 1,000,000 assets (vehicles or charge points) to the Daloop Platform by the end of the decade.
Commenting on the new carbon calculator platform, Daloop CEO Jane Hoffer said: “Daloop.Earth is a highly visual way for businesses and individuals to more easily understand the impact that they are having on the planet through their mobility choices and we hope it inspires and encourages others to get involved.”
Speaking on the company’s rebrand, she added: “Daloop represents what we do in a much more concise and impactful way. Our tagline ‘Mobility change for good’ not only highlights the positive aspects of decarbonisation that we are immensely excited about, but also reinforces its permanence.”
The business is also launching a new e-book on ‘Change Anxiety’ in early May, compiling its experience in implementing and streamlining electric vehicle infrastructure for businesses, public organisations and municipalities alike to create guidance for fleet managers and those working in sustainable mobility.
The e-book will feature insights gleaned from the many assets already attached to Daloop’s Mobility Change Platform to illustrate the current electric vehicle infrastructure, its successes, as well as some of the challenges the industry faces.
