Volvo Trucks is addressing the urgency to fast-forward the transformation to electric transports by arranging a global on-line event.
Speed Up the Transition to Electric Trucks
The aim of the event is to show how to go electric and inspire transport companies to get started. The global on-line event will not only answer common questions, but also highlight the important business aspects of electromobility. Volvo Trucks started production of electric trucks already in 2019. Since then, the urgency to fight climate change has grown even more.
In addition to Volvo Trucks President, Roger Alm and company experts, the event will include representatives from large transport buyers, such as Amazon and IKEA, as well as executives from the transport companies DFDS in Europe and Manhattan Beer Distributors in the United States. Political encouragement can have a great impact on the speed of implementation and the event will also highlight the massive governmental incentive program that has been launched in Germany to kick off electromobility.
“We are the forerunners in electric transports and are working hard to initiate this very necessary technology shift. Now many pieces in the puzzle are coming together, making it possible for more hauliers to dramatically lower their CO2 emissions. This event will explain how it can be done,” states Roger Alm.
