PepsiCo anticipates fuel savings of almost $1 million from its electric semitrucks.

PepsiCo anticipates saving nearly $1 million in fuel costs for its fleet of 50 electric semitrucks at its Fresno bottling facility, thanks to Pacific Gas and Electric's Flex Connect program, which increases charging capacity from 3 to 4.5 megawatts. This enhancement allows for daytime charging, significantly improving operational efficiency by enabling quick charging from zero to 80% in about 40 to 60 minutes. PepsiCo is also expanding its EV fleet across California and aims to advance its sustainability goals through additional Flex Connect sites.
