The North American Council for Freight Efficiency (NACFE) and the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) will be conducting Run on Less – Electric DEPOT.
Since Sept. 11, they have been tracking energy use, miles driven, charging times, and more for 21 trucks from the 10 fleet depots in the Run. This event, set to begin live on LinkedIn at 1 p.m. EST on Sept. 18, will allow them the opportunity to share the results and challenging areas.
In this session, Mike Roeth, NACFE’s executive director, and Ari Kahn, manager, carbon free transportation, RMI, will talk about many of the issues that have become clear given the efforts of the Run as well as the work NACFE did leading up to the Run, including the Electric Depot Bootcamp.
Key takeaways will focus on the improvements in the trucks themselves, extending range, infrastructure development, and the people making the move to a cleaner transportation future happen.
