Electric heavy-duty trucks and charging infrastructure: A grid edge case study
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
This case study details the Volvo Low Impact Green Heavy Transport Solutions (LIGHTS) project, a three-year demonstration that aims to commercialize heavy-duty e-truck technology, develop a suite of electric fleet management solutions, and develop human capital and improve community engagement. Vehicle and charging profile data from the project’s 23 regional haul e-trucks will help improve utility planning, EV programs and advance electrification of other heavy-duty trucking applications. The case study highlights electric fleet energy and cost management tactics, utility strategies that encourage heavy-duty electrification while minimizing impacts to the grid, and how to use long-term incentives and market mechanisms to improve e-truck economics.
