Meet the team: Alexandre Klaeyle, Operations Director

 

Meet Alexandre Klaeyle, Operations Director at Fleete who ensures our day-to-day EV charging infrastructure facilities are safe, operating efficiently and reliably for our clients.

  • Hi, I'm Alex Klaeyle. I'm Director of Operations at Fleete.

    Essentially, my role at Fleete is to make sure that the EV charging infrastructure is up and running all the time for our clients. So that involves making sure that all the chargers are reliable. We have all the team be above and beyond the call to make sure that if anything happens we can be on the field to repair it, to make sure that actually the site has been designed, engineered properly to avoid any potential failures.

    The biggest challenge is probably going to be scale and pace. And for that you’re probably going to require like some of the very strong capital which is unprecedented for this transition. And at the same time, we might be hitting some of the physical constraints like power availability for instance, or even land availability to make this happen and make this possible. So I would say it's a very good time now to act and brace ourselves for this transition.

    It comes down to scale. So we are talking about like 270,000 E-trucks to come onto the roads over the next few years in Europe only. And just for that, that requires a huge amount of capital to be deployed plus some difficulties to overcome like grid and power availability, grid constraints, or even land availability. And for that at Fleete we are the right partner.

    Definitely this is one of the industries in which you see the results of what you are actually working on actually coming to fruition, but at the same time doing our bit for the planet and the environment. So definitely providing me with a lot of pride and fulfilment.
