MEC video shares fleet experiences with Orange EV trucks

In 2020, three fleets deployed Orange EV’s all-electric terminal trucks in the Chicago and Kansas City metro areas under Metropolitan Energy Center’s (MEC) grant project, Electrifying Terminal Trucks in Unincentivized Markets.

A new MEC video highlights these heavy-duty EV deployments, with the following fleets sharing their operational experiences with Orange EV terminal trucks:

  • Lazer Spot is the leading provider of yard management in North America, working at 400+ sites in the USA and Canada for manufacturers and retailers. Through the project, they deployed two trucks at a manufacturing facility and distribution center in the Chicago metro area.
  • Hirschbach Motor Lines, a private long-haul carrier specializing in refrigerated and other specialty cargoes, deployed their truck at a client site in Wyandotte County, KS.
  • Johnson County deployed their truck at the Tomahawk Creek Wastewater Treatment Facility in Leawood, KS.
