A method for optimizing operation of a fleet of vehicles includes providing an optimization network including a plurality of nodes and a plurality of connections therebetween. The nodes define all potential destinations in the network for freight delivery or pickup. The connections define all potential sequences of nodes traversable over the network. The method determines a pre-optimization simulation matrix including a plurality of sets of energy expenditures for traversing respective ones of each of the connections. Each of the plurality of sets of energy expenditures accounts for permutations of a plurality of different vehicle powertrains present in a fleet of vehicles. The method performs an optimization using the pre-optimization simulation matrix, fleet information indicating locations and energy states of a plurality of vehicles in the vehicle fleet, mission information indicating a pickup or delivery destination for a plurality of items of freight, and a fleet optimization objective.
