What Zeem Solutions does

Zeem Solutions is a US-based commercial electric vehicle (EV) fleet electrification company founded in 2017, headquartered in Inglewood, California, and backed by infrastructure investor ArcLight Capital Partners via a $50 million capital commitment in July 2022. The company operates a turnkey platform that combines modular charging hardware (the MyGrid system, including a Mobile Battery variant for power-constrained sites), shared charging depots near ports, airports, and logistics hubs, in-yard dedicated infrastructure, and a proprietary Charging Management System. Across its fleet, Zeem has dispensed 13.4 million kWh and logged 350,000+ charging sessions since opening its flagship LAX depot in December 2021, maintaining 98%+ uptime across light-duty through Class 8 vehicles.

The company's business model centers on Trucking-as-a-Service (TaaS) and Fleet-as-a-Service (FaaS) subscription offerings that bundle vehicle leasing, charging infrastructure, maintenance, secure parking, and energy management into a single monthly fee, with contract terms of 3-5 years. Additional revenue streams include usage-based kWh billing at shared depots, Infrastructure-as-a-Service deployments of MyGrid at customer sites (financed over 5-10 years), and grant/incentive capture services through an in-house Policy, Grants & Government Affairs team that has secured $33M+ in incentives across its portfolio. Zeem serves enterprise and mid-market fleet operators across drayage, airport operations, logistics and delivery, private fleets, transit, and autonomous vehicle segments, with named customers including Kuehne+Nagel, Anheuser-Busch, Airport Van Rental, Kaptyn, and Flow Rate Transportation.

Geographically, Zeem is scaling from a California base (LAX flagship, Long Beach Terminal Island) into Washington (SeaTac, with $5.12M NWSA funding), New Jersey (Newark East Coast hub with 80 DCFC ports and 300-vehicle parking), and Georgia (planned Savannah depot). The company has established partnerships with Ørsted, Nikola (100-truck purchase order), ABB E-mobility, Calstart, and the Northwest Seaport Alliance, and offers an OEM-agnostic vehicle portfolio spanning manufacturers including Tesla, Nikola, Kenworth, Volvo, Peterbilt, Daimler, GM BrightDrop, Ford, GreenPower, Rizon, XOS, and Workhorse. Its go-to-market combines enterprise field sales targeted at large fleet operators, strategic partnerships with port and airport authorities, and event-driven demand generation through industry conferences such as ACT Expo.

Scale indicators10 records

Recent moves10 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• ChargePoint: Largest independent EV charging network operator in North America, primarily light-duty but expanding into commercial fleet and depot charging. Competes with Zeem on the software/networking layer and increasingly on commercial fleet hardware deployments.
• BP Pulse: BP's global EV charging arm with significant North American truck and fleet charging investments, including partnerships at major freight corridors. An established energy-infrastructure incumbent that competes with Zeem for large fleet customers with deep capital backing.
• EVgo: Public fast-charging network with growing commercial and fleet business lines. While primarily light-duty, EVgo's fleet services and infrastructure investments place it as an incumbent competitor pursuing the same commercial depot customers Zeem targets.

Direct peers

• WattEV: California-based developer of large-scale, public-access commercial truck charging depots at the Port of Long Beach, Bakersfield, and Gardena. Directly competes with Zeem in port-adjacent drayage and Class 8 depot charging with a similar shared-depot + public-access model.
• Voltera: Develops, owns, and operates commercial-scale EV charging depots with a site-acquisition-and-build-out model. Competes directly with Zeem's MyGrid in-yard solution for fleet customers wanting turnkey site development without owning infrastructure themselves.
• Terawatt Infrastructure: National developer of depot-based medium- and heavy-duty EV charging infrastructure, backed by Series A and growth equity. Directly competes with Zeem's MyGrid and shared depot model across multiple US freight corridors with a similar turnkey infrastructure offering.
• Forum Mobility: Develops and operates dedicated electric drayage truck charging depots at the Port of Long Beach, with a heavy focus on the same port drayage customer segment Zeem serves. Direct overlap on customer profile, depot real estate strategy, and Trucking-as-a-Service bundling.
• Greenlane: Commercial EV charging joint venture between Daimler Truck, NextEra Energy, and BlackRock. Targets the same Class 6–8 depot charging segment as Zeem with a similar build-own-operate depot model and major-OEM backing that creates direct competitive pressure on Zeem's bundled TaaS offering.

Emerging players

• Xos Trucks: Commercial BEV truck OEM that also offers charging infrastructure and fleet services through Xos Energy. Competes with Zeem as an integrated vehicle-plus-charging provider, particularly for Class 5–8 fleet customers seeking a single-vendor solution.
• Fermata Energy: Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) bidirectional charging specialist for commercial fleets. Adjacent rather than direct, but increasingly relevant as Zeem's predictive power management and grid-services monetization strategy matures and V2G becomes a fleet economic lever.
