We\u2019ve already ordered an electric DAF box truck from Truckland (photo), which will be delivered next year.

Because battery capacity is increasing rapidly, the range of electric trucks is getting longer and longer. That will be one of the criteria on which we\u2019ll base our decision, in close consultation with our drivers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Own Charging Station<\/strong><br \/>\nVan Elderen expects a decision to be made by the end of this year, after which the electrification of the tractor-trailer fleet can be implemented in phases starting in 2027. \u201cThe electric tractors we\u2019re going to test still need to be charged off-site, but when the electric box truck is delivered next year, we want to be able to charge it here. Eventually, Frigo Nieuw-Vennep will have its own charging station. Fortunately, our contracted capacity is sufficient to accommodate at least six charging stations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wanted: Drivers (m\/f)<\/strong><br \/>\nBy the way, the Frigo Group is still looking for a talented and motivated driver (m\/f) for its new electric box truck.
