Transformation in the Fleet: Paccar Provides Comprehensive Support
Paccar Power Solutions, the new business division of the commercial vehicle manufacturer DAF, is designed to assist transport companies in transitioning to zero-emission mobility. With a wide range of customized energy solutions such as charging stations, microgrids, and energy management systems, the truck manufacturer aims to drive the energy transition in freight transport.
Individual Energy Solutions for Electric Fleets
For a successful transition to electric vehicles, Paccar Power Solutions first analyzes the specific requirements of customers. Aspects such as fleet size, charging schedules, grid capacities, and self-generated energy are considered. Michael van Rijen, Head of Paccar Power Solutions, explains:
“After this analysis, we align the customer's ambitions, needs, and expectations with the latest insights and technologies.”
In addition to consulting, Paccar also handles the implementation of projects, such as the development of microgrids with solar panels, battery storage systems, and fast-charging stations. Surplus energy can be stored, traded, or sold to third parties.
Electric Vehicles for Various Applications
Since 2021, DAF has been offering a comprehensive range of charging stations and fully electric trucks. The models range from the compact XB Electric for urban distribution (range up to 350 kilometers) to the XF Electric with a range of 500 kilometers for national and long-haul transport.
Sustainability Meets Economic Efficiency
Paccar emphasizes that sustainability and economic efficiency are not opposites.
"Our solutions are robust, customized, cost-efficient, and future-proof," said van Rijen.
The aim is to support companies in implementing their sustainability strategies while simultaneously creating profitable business models.
Conclusion
With Paccar Power Solutions, DAF not only offers electric vehicles but also comprehensive consulting and implementation in the energy supply sector. The offer is aimed at transport companies that want to future-proof their fleets.
