Plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) can save your company money - but only if employees plug them in!

Is Your Fleet Really Saving with Plug-In Hybrids?

Many companies invest in Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) to reduce fuel costs and emissions. But if your drivers aren’t plugging in, those savings disappear – and your costs skyrocket.

The truth? When PHEVs are driven without charging, they burn more gas than traditional vehicles, increasing your expenses and your carbon footprint.

MoveEV’s free PHEV Savings Calculator helps you see the hidden impact of underutilized hybrids and shows how implementing a home charging reimbursement program can turn things around.

What Does the PHEV Savings Calculator Do?

Our tool helps fleet managers:

  • Understand the true costs of PHEV misuse

  • Calculate potential fuel and emissions savings when drivers charge at home

  • Visualize environmental impact by tracking Scope 3 emissions over time

With just a few inputs — fleet size, gas and electricity prices, and mileage — the calculator reveals:

  • How much you’re overspending when drivers don’t plug in

  • The environmental toll of uncharged PHEVs

  • How much your fleet could save with a home-first charging policy

Calculate Your PHEV Fleet’s Hidden Costs Now!

Why Plugging In Matters

When PHEVs are charged nightly, they deliver on their promise: reduced fuel costs and lower emissions. Without charging, they fall short — costing more to operate and creating more CO2 emissions than their internal combustion counterparts.

The solution? Encourage your fleet to plug in by reimbursing them for home charging. MoveEV’s flagship product, ReimburseEV™, makes this process seamless and accurate.

FAQ

What is a PHEV? A Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) is a vehicle with both an electric battery and a traditional combustion engine. PHEVs run on electricity first and switch to gas once the battery is depleted. To achieve cost and emissions savings, they need to be charged regularly.

Why do PHEVs cost more to operate when they aren’t charged? When PHEVs run on gas, they are less fuel-efficient than their internal combustion counterparts due to the additional weight of the battery. This results in higher fuel costs and increased emissions.

How can MoveEV help? MoveEV’s ReimburseEV™ solution takes the guesswork out of home charging reimbursement, ensuring your fleet drivers have the right incentives to plug in their vehicles nightly. By providing accurate home charging reimbursements, your company can reduce fuel costs and carbon emissions while streamlining fleet operations. We can also give you visibility into which drivers are complying with your plug-in policy and which are running their PHEV fleet vehicles mostly on gas.
