Electric HGV trial passes half a million zero-emission miles

Electric Freightway Project Surpasses Truck Orders As Report Highlights TCO Advantage Of E-trucks

The third Electric Freightway report reveals that orders for electric heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) have surpassed the programme’s initial target of 140 trucks, writes Carol Millett. The findings also indicate that electric trucks are already capable of achieving a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) than their diesel counterparts. The report was produced by Hitachi ZeroCarbon and GRIDSERVE as part of the Zero Emission HGV and Infrastructure Demon…

Electric Freightway project reveals eHGV progress

Hitachi ZeroCarbon and GRIDSERVE have revealed the third Electric Freightway report, demonstrating more than a half a million zero-emission miles in the UK. The report contains project milestones, including initial data-driven calculations that show eHGVs can achieve lower total cost of ownership (TCO), compared to equivalent diesel trucks, under certain conditions. Led by GRIDSERVE as part of the Department for Transport and Innovate UK’s Zero …
