Partnering to speed up zero emission transport
Ikea, Volvo and Raben have signed a collaboration agreement on zero emission heavy transport in Poland. The furniture dealer will introduce heavy electric Volvo trucks for internal transport flows at two Ikea Industry factories in Poland. The trucks will be operated by Raben Group.
The learnings from the pilot will be used for the electrification of transport operations at scale in a larger transport network. The trucks will be charged at the Ikea Industry production facilities using renewable electricity from an external source.
The first electric truck will begin operation during autumn, and the partners are planning to expand the fleet based on the results of the pilot.
