The City of Roseville Implements BetterFleet Charge Management Software for Electric Buses and Municipal Fleet Vehicles
ROSEVILLE, Calif. – August 7, 2025 – BetterFleet, a leading provider of electric vehicle (EV) charge management solutions, has successfully implemented its comprehensive smart charging platform for the City of Roseville’s electric bus and fleet operations. This milestone marks a significant step toward the city’s goal of transitioning to a 100% zero-emission transit fleet by 2040.
With a total fleet of 41 buses and 1000+ city vehicles, Roseville Transit is in the process of replacing its diesel and gasoline vehicles with electric models. To date, the city has purchased five electric 40-foot transit buses, five commuter electric buses, and twelve electric on-demand vehicles. These electric vehicles will be powered by the community-owned Roseville Electric Utility, unlocking lower fuel and maintenance costs and reducing overall emissions. With 9 Level 3 DC fast chargers and 5 Level 2 chargers currently, the city’s corporation yard is designed to be future-proof, allowing for expansion of charging capabilities as more EVs are added and they move into phase 2 of the project, increasing their infrastructure to a total of 71 chargers.
This project to deploy the BetterFleet charge management system is funded at no cost to the city through a grant from the California Energy Commission (CEC). Under the CEC’s Clean Transportation Program, BetterFleet was awarded a Responsive, Easy Charging Products with Dynamic Signals (REDWDS) grant, which accelerates the adoption of user-friendly charging solutions that can respond to dynamic grid signals.
BetterFleet’s charge management solution provides the City of Roseville with real-time visibility of electric vehicle charging sessions, infrastructure status, and vehicle availability. The user-friendly portal enables remote charger control, smart scheduling, and advanced reporting capabilities. By leveraging machine learning algorithms, the platform can accurately estimate remaining charging time, predict vehicle range, and support informed dispatch decisions. A unique digital twin feature takes into account route topography, vehicle physics, driver behavior, and grid constraints in real-time, allowing for data-driven strategies that optimize operational efficiency and reduce strain on the power grid.
“We are delighted to partner with the City of Roseville to provide BetterFleet at no cost to the city and implement a system that not only manages energy and emissions but also supports efficient operation of the city’s electric transit and municipal fleet vehicles,” said Daniel Hilson, CEO of BetterFleet.
“This technology has enhanced our ability to efficiently and effectively operate our electric transit and city vehicles,” said Brandy LeBeau, Fleet Manager, City of Roseville. “The addition of BetterFleet’s charge management system is an exciting milestone in our journey toward a zero-emission fleet.”
