Leinfelden-Echterdingen, Germany/Los Angeles, CA, USA – Daimler Truck AG („Daimler Truck“) announces Greenlane Infrastructure’s (“Greenlane”) first EV charging corridor for commercial vehicles in the United States. Greenlane, a joint venture between Daimler Truck North America LLC, NextEra Energy Resources, LLC, and BlackRock (through a fund managed by its Climate Infrastructure business), is aiming to design, develop, install and operate a high-performance zero-emission public charging and hydrogen refueling network for medium- and heavy-duty battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell commercial vehicles in the United States. The launch of the charging corridor marks a critical step in Greenlane’s mission to address the urgent need for a publicly available electric charging infrastructure.
280-miles corridor between Los Angeles and Las Vegas
The new charging corridor with more than 100 chargers and modern amenities alongside Interstate I-15 aims to accelerate the rollout of carbon-neutral freight transportation with three initial charging locations in Colton, Barstow and Baker, California. Over the next year, further locations will be added along the corridor, extending beyond Southern Nevada and to San Pedro in California.
“After considering various factors, such as truck telematics data, frequent freight routes and customer deployment strategy, the Greenlane team selected these three optimal locations for our first commercial charging corridor to accelerate the transition to zero emissions,” said Patrick Macdonald-King, CEO of Greenlane. “The launch of this corridor not only marks a critical step in addressing the urgent need for publicly available, nationwide electric charging for commercial vehicles but will also serve as a model for the EV charging hubs of the future.” Read more
