COMPREDICT's Mass Estimator Optimizes WATEA by Michelin’s Electric Fleets
Providing a pure software solution to determine transported mass, optimizing vehicle missions, maintenance, and EV range.
Solving a Critical Data Gap for Fleet Managers
Watèa by Michelin, a turnkey electric mobility solution, integrates COMPREDICT’s Virtual Sensors into its offer to provide fleet managers with key indicators that allow them to fully exploit the potential of their electric vehicles.
The Challenge: The Mass Data Gap
Fleet managers of light commercial vehicles (LCVs) frequently need to know the mass transported during the day. However, there is no pure software solution to continuously determine this, and the cost of hardware sensors is often prohibitive.
Our Solution: The Virtual Mass Sensor
COMPREDICT developed a software solution using data already available on board. Our algorithms calculate the carried mass after only a few minutes of each trip, which Watèa integrates and displays continuously on its platform.
Key Benefits of Mass Estimation
Optimize Operations and Maintenance
Knowing the precise transported mass allows fleet managers to:
- Optimize maintenance schedules based on actual vehicle workload.
- Gain a better understanding of operations in the field.
Enhance EV Range Accuracy
The mass estimator is a key asset for EV charging strategy. Transported mass strongly impacts a vehicle's driving range, and our data helps solve the major obstacle of range uncertainty.
- Solves unsatisfactory range estimation from standard on-board systems.
- Allows Watèa by Michelin to fine-tune its range management tools.
- Improves confidence in EV adoption for commercial applications.
