The Value of a Hybrid Power Approach for Enhanced Fleet Operation

It’s certainly not news that there are more battery chemistry options for lift trucks than ever before. And as many warehouse/DC and fleet managers are discovering, installing flooded lead acid, Thin Plate Pure Lead (TPPL) and Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries does not need to be an either/or choice.

Rather, these different chemistries can complement each other by powering different lift truck applications in the same facility. In fact, many are discovering that this emerging hybrid approach can boost productivity and cut Total Cost of Ownership—and offer the most cost-effective choice.

In this podcast, Harold Vanasse, Senior Director of Marketing, Motive Power Global at EnerSys, a leading stored energy systems and technology provider for industrial applications, joins Michael Levans, Group Editorial Director for Peerless Media’s Supply Chain group in a conversation around some of the power challenges facing fleet managers, and how you can assess your power needs and ultimately determine if a hybrid power approach makes sense for your operation.
