San Diego MTS has served the San Diego community for over 135 years. There are thousands of employees who keep the fleet of nearly 1,000 vehicles maintained and operating every day, including all-electric trolleys and near-zero emission buses.
With their commitment to transitioning their bus fleet from compressed natural gas to 100% zero tailpipe emission bus (ZEB) through 2040, San Diego MTS sought out a charge management software provider to assist with managing their growing fleet and charging infrastructure.
bp pulse was selected in a competitive bid to install Omega charge management software on 150 total chargers, with plans to scale operations to four total locations over the next five years. San Diego MTS also included an assignability clause in their contract, allowing other public agencies to use language from their contract in their own fleet electrification projects.
