EV or LPG: What's Right for Your Fleet?
Monday, September 27, 3:00 PM

Many states are proposing full electrification of medium- and heavy-duty trucks by 2050 in order to reach zero emissions targets. Is this the right choice for your fleet? And how do you evaluate that? This informative session lifts the hood on the alternative energy debate and outlines what fleet managers should take into consideration when making this type of investment.

The program will identify the key metrics to consider when selecting an alternative energy source, including total cost-of-ownership with real-world cost comparisons of various fuels/energy source vehicles and full-fuel-cycle emission profiles.

It will also help you think more critically about where energy comes from and the emissions that are produced not only when a vehicle is in operation, but from every energy source that got that vehicle on the road.

Rethinking Contactless Payments: It’s Time to Skip the App Store
Monday, September 27, 4:00 PM

Seemingly overnight in 2020, contactless payments went from a nice-to-have to a need-to-have. According to Mastercard, 75% of consumers prefer using contactless over other forms of payment. But not every customer wants to download yet another app. So how should parking operators respond? Take a deep dive into the technology trends and the tools being developed to deliver drivers touch-free, convenient ways to pay for parking in this information-packed program.

The program will:

  • Examine the trends and make forecasts in consumer payment behavior
  • Outline the key steps in a holistic, contactless payments strategy to drive customer satisfaction and adoption
  • Identify the cost difference between traditional hardware and contactless infrastructure

The session will also examine the ‘bonus’ side effect that new contactless payments will have on the bottom line in providing a decreased reliance on hardware, saving owners and operators time and money.
