Abstract

The subject disclosure relates to techniques for optimizing autonomous vehicle activities at a fleet level. A process of the disclosed technology can include measuring a first set of cost metrics for a first plurality of autonomous vehicles (AVs) associated with a first vehicle routing version, wherein the first set of cost metrics comprises energy consumption values for two or more of the first plurality of AVs, measuring a second set of cost metrics for a second plurality of AVs associated with a second vehicle routing version, wherein the second set of cost metrics comprises energy consumption values for two or more of the second plurality of AVs, and comparing the first set of cost metrics with the second set of cost metrics to determine routing updates configured to reduce fleetwide energy consumption.
