Our next-generation Enviro400EV has made its way to Jersey to complete a trial over the next couple of weeks to evaluate the feasibility of running electric vehicles on route 15 from the island’s airport to St Helier. LibertyBus currently operates eleven double deckers, six of these being Alexander Dennis Enviro400 diesel double deckers. The new Enviro400EV is a versatile battery-electric double decker bus that provides a comfortable travelling experience for up to 73 seated passengers in the specification evaluated by LibertyBus. Its heavy-duty drive system and 472kWh battery provide ample power and range, contributing to class-leading 97% grid-to-wheel efficiency that keeps operating costs to a minimum. Shaun Millar, our National Account Manager said: “We are pleased to have made the next-generation Enviro400EV available for this trial by Tower Transit in Jersey. We expect that “the crowd-shifter” will perform well with its comfortable passenger experience and outstanding energy efficiency. We are really looking forward to the feedback from Tower Transit which will help us to further refine our Enviro400EV.” Tower Transit Group Regional Director Kevin Hart added: “We are excited about trialling this electric double decker bus on the island. Once we have concluded out of service trials, we will be operating the bus on our route 15 during the week, and we would love to hear the feedback from our customers.” #LeadingtheZEvolution

As decarbonising the transport sector continues to be a high priority for the European community, we turn our attention to what can be considered a subsector of electric vehicles: the recreational vehicle (RV) market. inspiratia sat down with Wolfgang Speck, CEO of Knaus Tabbert AG, to discuss the new RV market. In this interview, we delve into the company's market position, strategies, and the future of electric RVs as Knaus Tabbert adapts to the shifting landscape of customer expectations and technological advancements.

First Electric Highway 🇩🇪 2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣9️⃣ Germany introduced the first electric highway on its motorway system to recharge hybrid trucks as they drive. The ehighway is 6 miles long and is on the A5 motorway south of Frankfurt in the state of Hesse. Hybrid trucks connect to overhead cables and charge trucks whilst they travel at speeds of up to 56mph. The scheme was funded by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, who provided €14.6m for the construction of the motorway, with a further €15.3m available for trials in Hesse until 2022. #Siemens estimate that if 30% of Germany’s motorways were electrified, the country would reduce its CO2 emissions by seven million tonnes and fuel savings could be as much as €16,000 per 100,000km. ‼️this project was closed ‼️ Florian Palatini Constantin Weiss Ulrich M.

America Could Learn from Germany’s Electric Highway: A Blueprint for Revolutionizing Transportation Germany has taken a bold step into the future with its first electric highway, where hybrid and electric trucks are powered directly by overhead cables as they drive. This innovation isn’t just a technological marvel—it’s a game-changer for reducing emissions, cutting fuel costs, and transforming how we think about transportation. Imagine if America embraced a similar vision. With our vast network of highways and growing push for sustainable solutions, implementing electric highways could revolutionize our infrastructure and economy. Here’s how: • Cutting Carbon Emissions: Transportation accounts for a significant portion of America’s greenhouse gas emissions. Electrifying highways could dramatically reduce our carbon footprint. • Energy Efficiency: Trucks and other vehicles using electric highways would consume less fuel, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and lowering operational costs for businesses. • Economic Growth: Building and maintaining electric highways would create thousands of jobs in construction, technology, and engineering sectors. • Global Leadership: By adopting cutting-edge solutions, America could set the standard for green infrastructure and innovation worldwide. Germany has shown us what’s possible. It’s time for America to take a page from their playbook and invest in forward-thinking, sustainable solutions. An electric highway system isn’t just about transportation—it’s about securing a cleaner, more efficient, and prosperous future for generations to come.

A lot of people, myself included, are very eager to see growth in sustainability efforts. I've learned a few lessons over the years. 1. Understand that sustainability technology requires scalable solutions with tangible ROI and high costs. 2. Many of these efforts are celebrated for being creative, as they should, but in testing they fail to meet the criteria above. That does not mean that sustainability solutions don't exist, it just means we either have to look elsewhere, or that particular solution isn't quite ready yet. 3. Vast technological and infrastructure growth in the energy sector takes a very long time to come together. Technological development and testing will take place over decades. Much of this work has been happening for decades and will continue to occur over the coming decades. The success or failure of sustainability growth and adaptions cannot be measured yet. The scientific method will transpire in countless cycles and work will be done behind the scenes continuously as our societal demands are ever changing. Be weary of grandiose definitive statements. Celebrate and Appreciate the creative efforts that are tested whether they succeed or fail. Be educated, and open-minded towards a unique point in history. We will watch the brightest minds in the world attempt to make incalculable changes to our society for the greater good, over the course of our lives.

This approach shows us that how important to develope charging systems for commercial use vehicles.

By 2035, the global fleet of small electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft is projected to reach 12,000, with potential growth to 45,000 by 2040. This new mode of travel promises lower costs, reduced emissions, and improved safety, presenting lucrative investment opportunities.

Electrification of heavy duty vehicles in ports is absolutely possible and a major contributor to reduce the local carbon footprint of the maritime industry. DP World's London Gateway Hub operates Kalmar electric straddle carrier fleets at its latest 4th "all-electric terminal" opened in November. The 60 tons vehicles charge in just 45 minutes to 100% at 8 high power satellite charging stations provided by Kempower. This is very impressive and a great example of terminal operators who take responsibility for innovation to decarbonise the maritime sector. Hopefully many other terminals will follow this example. https://lnkd.in/diQa9Nqr #impactinvesting #smartports #electrification #heavyduty #terminaloperation
