Forwarding company Rüdinger relies on Renault e-trucks for general cargo and distribution transport.
The proportion of electric vehicles at Rüdinger Spedition is set to grow continuously, and now the electrification target for the year 2025 has reportedly been reached ahead of schedule. 15 percent of the 60 vehicles in the local transport fleet are said to be electric-powered. Two Renault Trucks E-Tech D Wide are already in daily use, and the addition of the fourth Renault Trucks E-Tech T-SZM is new.
Sustainability Goals
The battery-electric vehicles are used in general cargo and distribution traffic and are intended to contribute to the company's sustainable logistics.
The plan is to convert the entire short-haul transport of the freight forwarding company to electric vehicles by 2027. The electric fleet is to be further expanded in 2025, with 50 percent of short-haul vehicles being electrically powered by 2026.
```"We are proud to make an important contribution to environmental protection with our electric fleet while also operating economically," says Roland Rüdinger, managing director of Rüdinger Spedition.
Charging Infrastructure
Furthermore, the company is investing in the expansion of the charging infrastructure at the Krautheim site. Two charging stations with a total of four 60 kW charging points for overnight charging are installed. The first fast charging station with two 200 kW charging points is ready for use, and photovoltaic systems on the building roofs support the charging infrastructure in sunny weather.
