According to the Swedish truck maker, in some applications it’s now possible to achieve a range well beyond 800 km on one charge. Also, the positioning of the battery module under the cab of the Scania electric truck frees up more space for bodywork.

The demonstration showed how battery-electric trucks can do more than transport goods. Through bi-directional charging, trucks can also support the power grid by providing flexibility services such as peak shaving, grid balancing, and energy storage.

The solution combines a battery-electric Scania truck with a fully integrated electric concrete mixer system. By enabling zero tailpipe emissions in demanding building site environments, the project provides an emphatic argument for the decarbonisation of construction logistics.
