Description
Join a breakfast panel for an informal discussion on the critical benefits and challenges of electrifying trucks with RMI, the North American Council of Freight Efficiency (NACFE), and the Department of Energy (DOE). Electric trucks are at an exciting market inflection point that echoes and diverges from the development of passenger EVs. Come for key insights including:
- RMI’s new report on preventing electric truck gridlock and why e-trucks need new electric grid strategies.
- NACFE’s imminent Run on Less – Electric DEPOT event featuring eight fleet depots with 15+ class 3 to 8 electric vehicles and its new guidance report on hydrogen trucking.
- DOE’s EVGrid Assist Initiative- expanded vehicle grid integration data and tools, including vetted load projections for medium and heavy duty vehicles.
