    'Achilles' Heel': How Charging Hobbles the Electric Truck -- Friday, October 16, 2020

    10/20/2020 TECHNOLOGY: 'Achilles' heel': How charging hobbles the electric truck -- Friday, October 16, 2020 -- www.eenews.net THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE ENERGY SECTOR TECHNOLOGY 'Achilles' heel': How charging hobbles the electric truck David Ferris, E&E News reporter • Published: Friday, October 16, 2020 Trucking and logistics companies that want to shift to an all-electric vehicle fleet are concerned that charging technology and the electric grid aren't advancing as quickly. Claudine Hellmuth/E&E News(illustration); PxHere(trucks); PxHere(grid towers) Second in a series. The first part can be found here. Electric truck fleets seem to be on express delivery these days. In June, California set an aggressive new rule to require them. Last month, Walmart Inc. said its fleet will be all-electric by 2040, and just last week, Amazon.com Inc. unveiled designs for a delivery van it wants to deploy by the tens of thousands. "Last year, we all thought this world was a couple of years away," said Jonathan Levy, a vice president at EVgo, an electric vehicle-charging company. "And this year it's now." But before the wheels of the electric truck stands a boulder. Several boulders, actually. All of them have less to do with the truck itself than how to deliver its electric fuel. E&E SERIES Making an electric truck turns out to be the easy part. Aligning the needs of the extraordinarily complex trucking and logistics industries with the slow- moving electric utility industry — that's the hard part. And experts worry that when the trucks start to march off the line in large numbers in two or three years, the chargers and electric grid won't be ready.
