Fleets in four market segments could switch to battery-electric vehicles right now, the North American Council for Freight Efficiency concluded after its recent Run on Less — Electric event.

LONG BEACH, Calif. — The North American Council for Freight Efficiency, in partnership with RMI, provided an update on Run on Less — Electric, a three-week real-world demonstration with 13 vehicles performing zero-emission goods movement, during ACT Expo.

As the North American Council for Freight Efficiency prepares for its Run on Less — Electric demonstration in September, it expects vehicle downtime likely to be a factor and something to chart.

The North American Council for Freight Efficiency has announced Run on Less – Electric, a real-world demonstration slated for September of zero-emission goods movement involving 13 private and public fleets and a mix of vehicles — including yard tractors — from 13 OEMs.

The North American Council for Freight Efficiency announced plans for Run on Less-Electric, a technology demonstration of a variety of battery-electric trucks in everyday operation.

The North American Council for Freight Efficiency announced it has begun to explore autonomous goods movement by publishing a series of online articles under the banner NACFE’s Perspective on Autonomous Trucking.

The United States has five high-priority areas where the regional haul environment is inherently so well suited for moving freight economically with electric vehicles that fleet owners there should plan to deploy those trucks “even if just as a pilot project,” according to the North American Council for Freight Efficiency.

Industry feedback aimed at a report on regional trucking called for additional attention to the complexity of managing aerodynamic equipment in that operational environment, and generated new assumptions on the length of haul.

ATLANTA — The North American Council for Freight Efficiency on Feb. 23 announced it is beginning a three-year program to identify what it calls “high-potential” regional routes that are well-suited to running electric trucks.
