We just placed an order for yet another 100 electric trucks 🚛🔌 We currently have the largest fleet of heavy-duty electric trucks in Europe, and with this step, we're closer to reaching the target of electrifying at least 25% of its truck fleet by 2030. "We want to drive the transition to more sustainable road transport. Our expanding fleet of electric trucks will not only contribute to reducing the climate impact of our operations. It will also enable DFDS to support more companies looking to decarbonise their supply chains. The 100 new electric trucks underline our commitment to pushing the development forward," says Niklas Andersson, EVP of the Logistics Division. We ordered 125 electric trucks in 2021. 95 are in operation today in Sweden, Denmark, Lithuania, Belgium, and the Netherlands, and the last 30 will be delivered in 2024.  Join us in our journey towards a more electrifying future, and stay tuned for more updates on our new E-trucks ⚡🔌💡 #dfds #WeMoveForAllToGrow #etrucks #wetakeaction Volvo Trucks

🚛🔋 We are thrilled to announce the launch of a groundbreaking initiative by DB Schenker, TRAILER DYNAMICS, and CATL to explore Battery Swapping Technology (BST) for electric trailers in Europe. This collaboration aims to enhance the efficiency of heavy goods transport, enabling quicker battery swaps in just five minutes! Key highlights of our project: 🌀 Increased Range & Efficiency: By allowing rapid battery swaps, we aim to maximize vehicle uptime and extend operational range. ⚡ Custom Solutions: Tailored battery modules will meet the diverse needs of eTrailer users, reducing reliance on traditional charging infrastructure. ⌚ Fleet Uptime: Higher utilization of fleet vehicles due to significantly reduced charging time from 3 hours to 5 minutes. As leaders in our respective fields—logistics, electric drive technology, and energy innovation—we are committed to driving the transition to sustainable transportation. Let’s pave the way for a cleaner, more efficient future in logistics! 🌍✨ #Sustainability #eTrailers #BatterySwapping #LogisticsInnovation #ZeroEmissions

Trailer Dynamics: Pioneering the Future of Swappable eTrailers At TRAILER DYNAMICS, we are excited to announce a groundbreaking step forward in our mission to revolutionize electric transportation. Together with our esteemed partners, DB Schenker and Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited, we are embarking on a transformative journey to integrate Battery Swapping Technology (BST) into our eTrailers. This innovative approach will redefine logistics by offering unparalleled efficiency and sustainability for heavy goods transport across Europe. Our Vision for Swappable eTrailers The development of swappable eTrailer batteries marks a new chapter in the future of logistics. By enabling quick battery swaps in just five minutes, we aim to eliminate traditional charging downtime, allowing our customers to maximize fleet utilization and significantly extend vehicle range. With this new capability, businesses will no longer have to wait hours to recharge—fleet uptime will be optimized, leading to higher operational productivity and lower emissions. The First Prototype Swapping Stations As part of this exciting project, we are also working on the construction of the first prototype battery-swapping stations in Europe. These stations will serve as a critical infrastructure element, supporting a fast, seamless transition from charged to depleted battery modules. Each station will be designed to deliver unparalleled speed and reliability, ensuring that fleet operators can minimize delays and keep their vehicles on the road. This not only reduces the environmental impact but also helps businesses achieve greater cost savings and operational efficiency. A Sustainable Future in Logistics At Trailer Dynamics, we are proud to be at the forefront of the transition to zero-emission transport. Our partnership with industry leaders like DB Schenker and CATL demonstrates our shared commitment to sustainability and innovation. We believe that by combining cutting-edge technology with a focus on practical, real-world solutions, we can create a logistics ecosystem that benefits both businesses and the environment. Stay tuned for more exciting developments as we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible in eTrailer technology and work towards a cleaner, more efficient future for the logistics industry.

New coalition eFREIGHT 2030 has launched to support the UK Government's aim of ending the sale of new non-zero emissions HGVS by 2040. It is backed by funding from Innovate UK and the DfT and chaired by former Business Secretary Sir Vince Cable. There are an initial 13 members including M&S, Kuehne & Nagel and Wincanton, who will trial a variety of initiatives such as new vehicles, charging technologies and digital platforms with the aim of sharing best-practice and identifying ongoing challenges across the industry. Curious to see how the initiatives from this consortium evolve and also how this works links with EV100+, the global initiative from Climate Group aiming to support organisations to kick-start the transition to zero-emissions medium and heavy-duty vehicles. #netzerotransition #EV #logistics https://lnkd.in/eBgnyRD7

The Upward Growth: The market share of fully electric trucks and buses is growing at an impressive pace in Europe, according to a new report from the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT).

Renault Trucks and DACHSER are cooperating on the gradual decarbonization of road freight transport. In total, the fleet in Germany has been expanded by fifteen Renault Trucks vehicles. The all-electric trucks complete local and long-distance transports at seven DACHSER locations in Germany every weekday. "We are convinced that in the long term, only those companies that position themselves sustainably will have a future," says Alexander Tonn, COO Road Logistics at DACHSER. "We therefore want to make a valuable contribution to environmental and climate protection and be a driving force for the logistics industry with measures on many levels. Bringing emission-free vehicles into practical use plays an important role in this. With Renault Trucks, we have a reliable partner with whom we can embark on what is still a long journey to decarbonize our road transports." As a part of our sustainability and climate protection strategy, we are working on the gradual transformation towards zero-emission vehicles and the corresponding charging infrastructure. Since January 1, 2022, we have been sourcing our electricity entirely from renewable energies worldwide. DACHSER is working on steadily increasing the number of BEVs (battery electric vehicles) and FCEVs (hydrogen-powered) trucks in both the local and long-distance transport networks, depending on performance, charging infrastructure and cost-effectiveness. In total, DACHSER already has 70 electric trucks on European roads. #DACHSER #electrictruck #emobility

First tests of electric long-haul transports underway within E-Charge! After preparations, technological development, and research, DB Schenker and Scania Group are now starting the demonstration of a fully electric heavy truck in regular traffic between Jönköping and Södertälje. This is the first logistics flow within the E-Charge project, where electrified long-distance truck transports will be showcased. "For DB Schenker, the purpose is to test and gain experience with fully electric heavy vehicles in long-distance traffic. Electrification of heavy vehicles plays a crucial role in our transition to carbon-neutral transportation, and since heavy traffic accounts for the largest emissions for us, it is incredibly important," says Anna Hagberg, Head of Network & Linehaul at DB Schenker and continues: "It will be incredibly exciting and interesting to learn from this pilot project. In addition to making a significant CO2 saving, it will be exciting to see how the driver's everyday life changes," concludes Anna Hagberg. Also for Scania, reducing emissions from long-distance transports is crucial, and they are delighted with the development. "The vehicle is Scania's first long-haul battery-electric vehicle with this capacity. I am very pleased that we are now able to start testing with our first customers," says David Gotthardsson, Concept Leader at Scania Pilot Partner. "The E-Charge project gives us a unique opportunity to collaborate with other stakeholders, to test and learn together. Together with DB Schenker, we are now testing solutions in real operations," says Tony Sandberg, Vice President Scania Pilot Partner. 💡🚛 🔋 Read more about it here: https://lnkd.in/d9YJQXEp E-Charge brings together participants from vehicle manufacturers, fuel companies, research, and electric grid companies to collaboratively drive the electrification of heavy, long-haul truck transportation.
