For years, fleet operators have faced the same question: how do you electrify your vehicles without breaking budgets or disrupting operations? The promise of electric vehicles is clear - lower fuel costs, reduced emissions, quieter rides, and simpler maintenance - but the path has been anything but straightforward.
Buying new EVs often means steep upfront costs and limited availability. Waiting for OEMs to catch up risks falling behind regulatory deadlines and sustainability goals. That's where Fuel2Electric and RePower Electric Corp step in.

Why Conversion Is the Smarter Path
The Commercial Fleet EV Conversion Kit, developed exclusively by RePower Electric Corp (RPEC), was designed from the ground up to meet the needs of fleet operators. Instead of scrapping perfectly serviceable buses and trucks, repowering extends their life while delivering the performance fleets demand. This isn't compromise - it's optimization.
Through Fuel2Electric's platform, fleets now have direct access to RPEC's breakthrough conversion technology, backed by a dealer network that understands real-world operations.

The kit combines four key advantages:
Efficiency - Proven systems that squeeze more miles out of every kilowatt-hour.
Battery Density - High-capacity packs that balance weight, range, and reliability.
Power - Torque-rich drivetrains tuned for duty cycles that matter to fleets.
Price - Lower total cost of ownership compared to both new EVs and diesel.

In short: the right balance of power, range, and value - engineered by RPEC and brought to market by Fuel2Electric.

Built for Real Fleet Needs
School districts, transit agencies, municipalities, and private operators all face the same pressures - do more with less, while proving sustainability gains. With RPEC technology now available through Fuel2Electric, conversions happen quickly, vehicles stay in service, and operators keep control of their budgets.
As part of this collaboration, Fuel2Electric organized a 4-day demonstration drive in Northwest Arkansas for the Ozark Regional Transit last week. Drivers praised the quiet, smooth ride and regenerative braking of the repowered E-350 shuttle, while technicians were impressed with the technology during hands-on evaluations on the lift. The successful demo highlighted the real-world benefits of electrification and built excitement for the upcoming extended-range solutions.

"Repower brings precision and proven technology to the conversion space," said Laurent Frugier, CEO and cofounder at Fuel2Electric. "By combining their expertise with our national network of EV professionals, we can help more fleets electrify smarter, cost-effectively, faster, and with solutions tailored to their needs."

RPEC's kits integrate seamlessly into existing fleet maintenance practices. Open diagnostics, direct engineering support, and up to 5 years / 100,000 miles of warranty coverage ensure confidence for the long haul.

"While our national dealers focus on new and used bus sales equipped with our EV kits, Fuel2Electric is a recognized provider of retrofit installations through its channel of national partners," said Al Snyder of RePower Electric Corp. "This relationship ensures fleets have access to both new vehicle solutions and cost-effective retrofit options - whichever makes the most sense for their operation."

A Market Turning Point
Electrification is no longer a future concept for commercial fleets - it's a present necessity. Incentive programs, emissions regulations, and rising fuel costs all point in one direction. Conversion is the fastest, most cost-effective way forward.

With Fuel2Electric and RPEC, fleets can choose from three tailored paths to lower total cost of ownership:
1) New buses from authorized dealers - Modern, electric-ready fleet vehicles designed for performance and efficiency.
2) Fully refurbished used buses - Extending the life of existing assets while upgrading to electric.
3) Retrofits of current fleets - Converting what you already own for immediate savings and sustainability impact.

John Wilson, Fuel2Electric cofounder, notes, "Seeing is believing. When showing transit managers and shop technicians the efficiency and simplicity of RePowers kit design, they are impressed and feedback is very positive."

With RePower Electric Corp's Commercial Fleet EV Conversion Kit now marketed through Fuel2Electric, fleets don't have to choose between cost and innovation. They can finally have both.
