This disproportionate contribution to emissions makes trucks a priority target if the goal of a net zero world is to be achieved. So says the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.idtechex.com\/en\/research-report\/electric-and-fuel-cell-trucks-2023-2043\/877\"><em>Electric and Fuel Cell Trucks 2023-2043<\/em><\/a> report from IDTechEx.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We review the trends in this sector with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/en\/experts\/daniel-burrows\/\"><strong>Daniel Burrows<\/strong><\/a>, a graduate in Physics from Imperial College London and in Climate Studies from Stanford, and founder and CEO of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trucklabs.com\/\">TruckLabs<\/a>, an American startup whose goal is to make truck fleets more efficient and sustainable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to this expert, solving the problem in local transport is relatively simple (by electrifying the fleet). The problem comes for long distances, where <strong>an energy source with high energy density is needed<\/strong>. At present, batteries are neither efficient nor dense enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Daniel Burrows was part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/en\/programs\/ftf\/\">Future Trends Forum<\/a> <strong><em>Building a net zero world<\/em><\/strong>, together with another thirty international experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Retos y oportunidades en Movilidad y transporte | Daniel Borrows\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fpamDE6sUNg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>Mobility and transportation challenges and opportunities | Daniel Burrows<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following are the major challenges and opportunities in transportation sector&#8217;s energy transition:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Heavy transport towards a net zero world <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are two main trends that will characterize the energy transition of heavy road transport towards zero emissions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1.- Increased efficiency throughout the distribution chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2.- Alternatives to clean energy sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Increasing efficiency <\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first trend has to do with the optimization of routes, interconnection points and, in general, the whole supply chain. Also included in this group are aerodynamic efficiency solutions for trucks, such as those developed by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fleetowner.com\/emissions-efficiency\/fuel-economy\/article\/21177679\/investors-commit-another-15m-to-trucklabs\">TruckLabs, the aforementioned startup, which a few months ago raised a financing round of $15 million<\/a>. For every truck that installs its TruckWings device, it saves the equivalent in emissions of taking two passenger vehicles off the road each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These solutions all share the use of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/en\/category\/technology\/artificial-intelligence\/\">artificial intelligence<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/en\/category\/technology\/big-data\/\">Big Data<\/a> to accelerate the process of creating applications. Solutions for optimizing routes, tracking, and managing vehicle fleets also use the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/en\/category\/technology\/iot-en\/\">Internet of Things<\/a> (IoT), with smart devices installed in trucks, containers and logistics centers. These devices collect data and, when required, can trigger certain actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An example of a Spanish startup in this sector is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ontruck.com\/en\">OnTruck<\/a>, which has developed a platform with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ontruck.com\/en\/why-ontruck\/transportation-management-technology\">predictive model based on artificial intelligence, with machine learning<\/a>, to offer companies regional freight transport services, through an immediate and transparent price management system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>New energy sources <\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The second, much more important and decisive trend is the development of <strong>zero-emission trucks<\/strong>, and includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>battery electric trucks<\/strong> and&nbsp; <strong><\/strong><\/li><li><strong>hydrogen fuel cell trucks<\/strong>.&nbsp; <strong><\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below is a more detailed look at these trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Electric trucks, when will they be ready?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With today&#8217;s batteries and the recharging points network, it is hard to imagine the electrification of the truck fleet. But there are very innovative initiatives that could lead, in a few years, to truly functional and economical solutions. Some examples of these are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tesla.com\/\"><strong>Tesla<\/strong><\/a> has been investing in electric trucks for years. In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tesla.com\/semi\">in 2017 they presented the first prototype of the so-called Tesla Semi<\/a>.&nbsp; Now, in 2022, they are already allowing booking of the truck, although it is not yet known when they will start to produce it. According to the manufacturer, the consumption of its electric truck will be about 124 kWh per 100 kilometers. If it has a range of 800 km (500 miles), as advertised, it would have to have a battery of about 1 MWh capacity. In parallel, they are developing specific chargers that will recharge 70% of the battery in 30 minutes.<strong><\/strong><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.einride.tech\/\"><strong>Einride<\/strong><\/a> is a Swedish startup, which manufactures a <strong>fully electric and autonomous truck<\/strong>. The truck has an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-news\/tech\/autonomous-car-levels-different-driverless-technology-levels-explained\/\">autonomy level 4<\/a> with remote control capability. Einride was <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2019\/05\/16\/electric-autonomous-tpod-sweden\/\">the first company in the world to operate an autonomous, electric charging vehicle on a public road<\/a> in 2019. The promising startup has raised a total of $152.3 million in funding, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crunchbase.com\/organization\/einride\">crunchbase<\/a>. Just a few months ago, the small truck developed by Einride, called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcmag.com\/news\/einrides-driverless-electric-pod-approved-for-us-public-roads\">Einride Pod, has gained approval to run on public roads in the U.S.<\/a> and they plan to conduct real-world testing there in the third quarter of this year. Being very promising, we see that they are still in fairly early pilot phases.<strong><\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trying to answer the question of when, and looking at the two examples above, it would not be surprising to see the first electric trucks circulating around 2025. This is a year in which, on the other hand, it seems that there will be scalable and marketable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transportenvironment.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/2022_07_TE_solid-state-batteries_study.pdf\">solid electrolyte battery<\/a> alternatives, which promise much higher energy density.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Will hydrogen be the solution for net zero heavy transport? \u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The emerging alternative to the electric truck is the <strong>green hydrogen fuel cell truck<\/strong>.

Here are the challenges and opportunities for the transformation of this sector. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":19024,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_oaas_summary":"Truck transport, though comprising less than 10% of the global road vehicle fleet, is responsible for about 40% of greenhouse gas emissions from road transport due to large diesel engines and high annual mileage. This accounts for roughly 5% of global fossil fuel CO2 emissions, making trucks a critical target for achieving net zero emissions. Daniel Burrows, CEO of TruckLabs, highlights that electrifying local truck fleets is straightforward, but long-distance transport requires energy sources with higher density than current batteries can provide.\n\nThe transition of heavy road transport to zero emissions involves two key trends: improving efficiency across the supply chain and adopting clean energy alternatives such as battery electric and hydrogen fuel cell trucks. Efficiency gains come from optimizing routes and logistics using AI, Big Data, and IoT technologies, exemplified by startups like TruckLabs and OnTruck. Battery electric trucks face challenges in energy density and charging infrastructure, but companies like Tesla and Einride are developing promising prototypes, with commercial models expected around 2025. Meanwhile, hydrogen fuel cell trucks offer longer ranges and quick refueling, with major manufacturers like Volvo, Mercedes-Benz, and Toyota aiming to launch models by 2030. These innovations present significant opportunities to reduce emissions in heavy transport, a crucial step toward a net zero future.","_oaas_audio_url":"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/summary-19026-1764627459.mp3"},"categories":[],"class_list":["post-19026","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!--
