A NEW heavy Scania battery electric truck, capable of handling loads up to 64 tonnes, is enabling two Swedish companies to meet their sustainability ambitions.
Forming part of the Pilot Series, designed to test the feasibility of battery electric vehicles in heavy and extreme situations, Scania is working with recycling and environmental specialists Ragn-Sells and machinery service company Foria.
Designed to operate on the roads northwest of Stockholm, this collaboration is part of Sweden’s REEL (Regional Electrified Logistics) initiative, where leading companies and organisations accelerate the transition to electrified emission-free transports.
The battery electric truck is already in operation.
