Earlier this month, AIT took a historical step toward decarbonizing the supply chain with our carrier partner, Z Transportation Inc. Utilizing an electric tractor unit, Z Transportation successfully completed the longest EV delivery ever for AIT – transporting crucial computing equipment for our technology sector customer on an 800-mile journey from New Jersey to Chicago. This achievement proves that electric vehicles can overcome range limitations and provide long-distance linehaul service, a major milestone for sustainable logistics! As advancements in battery technology and charging infrastructure continue to evolve, AIT remains committed to exploring innovative ways to reduce emissions for our customers and the entire freight forwarding industry, driving a more sustainable future for all.

AIT Worldwide Logistics reposted this
🚛⚡️ Smart Freight Centre along with Terawatt, announce the launch of a pilot shipper-carrier coalition to accelerate heavy duty electric truck adoption in the U.S. This pilot project will bring together major shippers and carriers like AIT Worldwide Logistics, DB Schenker, A.P. Moller - Maersk, Microsoft, and PepsiCo, to test long-haul heavy-duty battery-electric vehicle operations along the I-10 corridor between Los Angeles, California and El Paso, Texas in the United States (U.S.). With strategic charging support from Terawatt, this initiative aims to demonstrate the impact of zero-emission fleets, accelerate long-haul electric truck use, and advance the path to cost parity. By capturing valuable insights and fostering a robust ecosystem for heavy duty electric trucks, we hope to inspire broader industry participation and drive innovation in electric transport solutions. ℹ️ Read the official press release here: https://bit.ly/3MOGJPZ ℹ️ To learn more about SFC’s efforts towards electrifying road freight, click here: https://lnkd.in/e62DCEMF #SustainableLogistics #EV #ElectricTrucks #FreightElectrification #DecarbonizeLogistics #GreenTransport #ClimateAction
