40 t e-trucks for the middle mile
Hellmann is relying on a mix of alternative drive systems to significantly reduce the CO2 footprint of its heavy goods transport portfolio. The logistics company is putting two new fully electric 40-t Volvo swap body trucks into operation, including a 300 kW charging infrastructure, and expanding its e-truck fleet by adding four more distribution vehicles (16 t trucks) by this summer.
In addition, Hellmann has been using only bio-LNG to fuel its growing LNG fleet since the beginning of this year.
The two all-electric 40 t trucks will be used on the difficult-to-decarbonise middle mile – initially primarily on routes between the two German cities of Osnabrueck and Bremen. (ben)
