Transitioning to e-mobility can be worthwhile for your company’s future viability, environmental footprint – and often – bottom line. But many businesses are unclear where to start, what solutions to use and what the common pitfalls are.
In the rapidly evolving landscape of European transport, the transition to electrification has become a strategic imperative to meet the EU's ambitious 2030 climate targets. Recognising the central role of infrastructure in this transition, the European Commission presented an action plan in November 2023 outlining the need for nearly 600 billion euro of investment in electric truck charging infrastructure.1
More and more e-trucks are driving on European roads. In the first six months of 2024, there was a three percent increase in new registrations of electric trucks in the EU. This means: 183,295 more trucks that do not emit CO2 emissions into the air.1 Scania and Volkswagen Truck & Bus in particular recorded year-on-year sales increases in the first and second quarters of 2024.2 In this article you will learn more about the top electric truck manufacturers and their current models.
Fleet electrification is increasingly seen as a crucial step towards achieving wider environmental targets and increasing fleet efficiency. An electric fleet brings further benefits, but also challenges. You can find out more below, including the steps required to electrify the fleet.
As the transportation industry transitions towards greener technologies, understanding the total cost of ownership of electric vehicles (EVs) compared to internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles is crucial for fleet operators and policymakers. The TCO analysis encompasses various electric truck costs, including initial purchase price, maintenance costs, energy costs, and depreciation.
The shift towards electric trucks is a pivotal element in Europe's strategy to reduce carbon emissions. To achieve the CO2 reduction target of 45 percent by 2030, Europe needs a robust and extensive charging infrastructure.1
As the shift towards sustainability accelerates, more companies are increasingly investing in Battery Electric Trucks (BET). According to a PricewaterhouseCoopers International (PwC) report, in 2030 BET are forecasted to account for one third of all trucks in Europe, North America, and Greater China.1
