As the world accelerates toward a greener future, electrifying heavy-duty vehicles has become a key priority for reducing emissions in the transport sector. While much attention has been given to passenger vehicles, the electrification of heavy-duty fleets presents challenges – and opportunities – that must be addressed.
The Nordic+ region is making significant advancements in this area, but we don’t have all the answers yet. There is still a long road ahead, and many hurdles remain, from infrastructure and grid capacity to developing cross-border cooperation. Electrification demands collaboration across borders, seamless data sharing, and common standards, all essential when discussing logistics and the movement of goods. This webinar (31st of October, 13:00-14:30 CET) will explore how the Nordic+ region navigates these complexities, seeking innovative solutions and working towards a more sustainable future.
Agenda:
