MT. LAUREL, NJ – Automotive Resources International (ARI) participated in RMEL's Spring Electric Energy Conference with ARI business development manager, utility market, Rob Hoysgaard, presenting, "Reducing Total Cost of Ownership by Using Cross-program Solutions."

The presentation demonstrated how a single-source solution with flexible data integration for all vehicle activity will help to monitor and control activities for the entire fleet, thus improving productivity and lowering operating costs. Hoysgaard also explained how actions can be taken throughout the entire lifecycle to reduce fuel expenses and control emissions -- two areas where fleets cannot afford to be lax in this economy.

The RMEL Spring Conference offers educational sessions, technology demonstrations, and networking opportunities. Management, engineering, and operations professionals from many electric energy companies and supplier & service companies attended.

"RMEL's focus on energy policy and technology align with ARI's Partnership Approach," commented Hoysgaard. "Best Practices applications, particularly related to fuel expenses and emissions, support this industry's objective of creating a smarter electrical infrastructure."
