Electreon signs agreement with Portuguese autonomous truck player
By embedding Electreon's wireless charging coils into the ground along fixed operational routes, ATLoS vehicles are ready to charge dynamically while in motion or statically when parked at loading docks, eliminating the need for manual plugging and charging downtime. This synergy of two transformative technologies—autonomous driving and wireless energy transfer—is designed to streamline industrial logistics and optimize fleet operations for 24/7 automation.
Wireless charging specialist Electreon has signed a collaboration agreement with ATLoS, a Portugal-based company that specializes in manufacturing autonomous vehicles (AVs) for industrial environments. Through this collaboration, Electreon’s cutting-edge wireless charging technology will be integrated into ATLoS’s AVs, starting with vehicles operating along fixed routes within manufacturing compounds, logistics hubs, and warehouse environments.
The successful collaborative project could create significant new market opportunities for streamlining fully autonomous mobility solutions across sectors including automotive, food and beverage, pharma, airports, and ports.
