Chinese truck maker Windrose, now selling electric trucks also in North America and Europe, announced a valuable partnership with U.S.-based company Terawatt. The latter has recently inaugurated first charging site for medium- and heavy-duty electric trucks in California.

Now, the two partners have completed a series of advanced interoperability tests at Terawatt’s flagship site in Rancho Dominguez. According to the companies, these tests “successfully demonstrated Windrose’s dual gun charging capability, delivering over 650 kW using two 350kW chargers from Delta Electronics. Achieving a 240-mile range charge in around 40 minutes proves readiness for the next generation of high-utilization commercial electric fleets”.

Windrose and Terawatt: collaboration also on software and customer service

In addition, Windrose and Terawatt are now working on deeper software integration, connecting Windrose’s vehicle systems with Terawatt’s site and energy management platforms. Besides, Windrose and Terawatt are also collaborating on joint customer programs to support the rapid electrification of heavy-duty fleets across the U.S.

“Windrose builds the kind of vehicles that are going to define the future of freight,” said Neha Palmer, CEO of Terawatt. “By combining their next-generation trucks with our infrastructure, and sites designed for quick charging with the least disruption to operations, including pull-through stalls that accommodate trailers, we are unlocking new electric lanes in southern California and beyond. The deeper our collaboration goes—from power to software to site design—the better we serve our customers.”

“This partnership is about more than performance metrics—it’s about delivering real-world solutions to the fleets driving the energy transition,” added Wen Han, founder, chairman and CEO of Windrose Technology. “Together with Terawatt, we’re aligning vehicle and infrastructure platforms in a way that scales efficiently and delivers immediate value to customers.”
