The transition to electric trucks offers promise but also presents challenges to fleets required to purchase battery electric vehicle technology. The Clean Freight Coalition’s recent study with the consultancy Roland Berger projects this shift will cost fleets and utilities at least $1 trillion in infrastructure investment. Join industry experts as they review the results of this eye-opening study, followed by a panel discussion on the opportunities and challenges for fleet adoption of zero-emission vehicles. Are there segments of the industry that can electrify quickly and if not, what are the roadblocks that hinder widespread adoption?
