The Smart Energy Council advocates on behalf of the renewable energy industry acting as a representative body as well as providing training and advice on renewables.
Volvo Trucks, operating under Volvo Group Australia was an early mover in medium and heavy duty BEVs and is currently market leader in these segments, with the first Volvo BEV hitting Australian roads in 2021. Since then, Volvo electric trucks have covered over a million kilometres in cities around the country.
With over 73 heavy duty battery electric vehicle’s (BEV’s) now on Australian roads, transport operators are starting to reap the benefits of electrifying their transport operations in terms of total cost of ownership as well as future proofing their operations.
“It’s super exciting to see our electromobility journey recognised by our peers outside of industry, “says Tom Chapman, Vice President, Volvo Trucks Australia.”
“We’re determined to provide quality transport solutions for our customers and having an industry leading electric truck range is just one part of the solving the decarbonisation puzzle.”
“I’m very grateful to the Smart Energy Council for this recognition and look forward to seeing Australia’s electric truck fleet continue to grow and thrive in our cities.”
