Departure readiness

Departure readiness is the requirement that each vehicle holds enough charge to complete its duty by the time it is scheduled to leave. It is the constraint that separates fleet charging from other flexible loads: a saving that leaves a vehicle unable to start its shift has cost the operator more than it saved.

Where TOGL sits

TOGL treats readiness as a constraint on the optimiser rather than as one of its outputs, and depot operators keep the manual override.
