And what was one of the first things people noticed across the globe? Skylines. Mountain ranges. Suddenly, people could see things through the shroud of smog that usually hangs across cities everywhere. Even NASA\u2019s view from space was clearer. How is that for an unintended impact to shutting down the global economy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">                                  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In some places, particulate emissions from motor vehicles were\ndown 60%. Still, despite a drop in passenger traffic, however, many localities\nsaw a container drop of only 20% &#8211; 25%. Heavy-duty diesel trucks continued to\nspew NOx emissions and other particulate matter at a smaller rate, but perhaps\nnot small enough. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Few good things have come from this pandemic. Indeed, it has\nbeen a disaster on the world, but things are changing as a result. One example\nis the electrification of trucking. Zero-emissions technologies were already\nbecoming more ubiquitous, and the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated that\nprocess. When it comes to renewable technologies, it appears the pandemic has\nbeen a boon for business. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Trucking Companies Make Electric Plans<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Battery-electric suppliers have gotten creative in how they\ncontinue to support electrification during the pandemic. OEM engineers are\ndesigning components from their kitchen table and collaboration happens over a\nZoom room. Companies are charging ahead with their sustainability goals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Big trucking companies like J.B. Hunt have been hard at work\nstocking up on Freightliner eCascadia models for their intermodal service. Big\noperators are learning from the lessons gained when they were deploying natural\ngas vehicles. Many trucking companies simply did not have the necessary\ninfrastructure in place to support complete electrification. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quicktransportsolutions.com\/carrier\/florida\/jacksonville.php\">trucking companies<\/a> embarked on a natural gas journey thinking there may be a wealth of natural gas stations all over the country only to find that many were built exclusively for cars or took far too long to fill up the vehicle, making it less-than-economical. Many trucking companies were turned off on alternative fuel options for this reason. There simply needs to be the infrastructure to support adopting these new technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Companies simply cannot bring trucks with new technologies\nto market without an ecosystem wrapped around them. From those building the\ntrucks to those using them, all players involved must work proactively with\ngovernment agencies, utility companies, suppliers, and brokers on\nimplementation. OEMs cannot be simple bystanders in this situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s why companies like J.B. Hunt rely on their OEM partners to figure out how to best implement a new technology. Many trucking companies are focused on performance. Diesel has become more efficient and may offer some performance benefits. Indeed, alternative-fuel vehicles have a high bar to get over if more companies are to make the switch. If diesel prices fall, the problem becomes even more acute. Both the federal and state governments must continue to support incentives for battery-electric trucks. The price is simply still too high for many operators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">                                      <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just walk into a dealership or get a quote on an electric\nrig and you will find a price that is three to four times higher than the\naverage price of a diesel variant. Many trucking companies, especially small\nowner-operators, have a hard time justifying the greater expense. Fleets\nobviously want to be sustainable, but part of sustainability is being able to\nsustain your business. If you go out of business, it really doesn\u2019t matter\nwhether your fleet is electrified or not. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>OEMs Charge Ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Volvo Trucks North America has plowed ahead with\nelectrification despite moves in the broader global market. Still, obstacles\nremain. Trucking companies still must deal with a lack of charging\ninfrastructure, among other problems. Developing the required infrastructure to\nsupport electrification remains a huge hurdle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Daimler is another trucking OEM that has been making big\nmoves in the electric-truck space. Fortunately for the company, the COVID-19\npandemic did not have a big impact on medium- or heavy-duty battery-electric\ntrucks. Although there were some slowdowns during the pandemic, Daimler is now\nback to building trucks at the same volume as before the pandemic hit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Much of the volume Daimler has been moving is replacement\nvolume for trucking companies. This goes back to 2015, when truck sales were\nstrong. Now fleets are working on trading in those trucks for newer 2020\nvariants. Dedicated fleets are now replacing their vehicles at the 450,000 \u2013\n500,000-mile mark instead of keeping them for a million miles and beyond. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With many OEMs well into taking 2021 orders, they have not\nseen a huge drop in orders or revenue they expected at this point in the\nCOVID-19 pandemic cycle. This had led to some supply chain problems when it\ncomes to sourcing parts and components, but for the most part there haven\u2019t\nbeen any major shortages causing insurmountable pain or OEMs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fact is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quicktransportsolutions.com\/carrier\/florida\/orlando.php\">trucking companies<\/a> are not standing still. Many are well into their electrification game plan. If anything, events of late have only accelerated that process. How so? Consider that 15 states and the District of Columbia signed a memorandum of understanding in July regarding the deployment of electric trucks and buses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bus companies are also getting in on the electric action.\nThomas Built Buses has already begun production on their Jouley electric school\nbus. Dominion Energy looks to use the buses to store wind and solar energy\nduring the summer months when school is out. This represents a novel innovation\nin the use of electric trucks and buses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Electric Fleets Log Lots of Miles<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Freightliner \u2013 which is owned by Daimler \u2013 recently\nannounced that their innovation fleet has racked up more than 300,000 miles in\nreal-world use by their customers. The fleet is composed of 30 vehicles used by\nactual trucking companies. Daimler has been accumulating data on the fleet\nsince 2018 when it was deployed to select customers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many electric truck OEMs are partnering with the trucking\ncompanies that buy their products to get a better pulse of what those trucking\ncompanies needs. Fleets aren\u2019t going to make a big electric truck investment\nsimply because of a PowerPoint presentation or a fancy rendering. OEMs need to\nknow the pain points truck drivers deal with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One such example is settings a trucker might use when they\nare operating the vehicle in mountain ranges or hilly areas. When it comes to a\ndiesel engine\u2019s engine braking capability, do truck drivers do the same thing\nwith electric trucks? Perhaps there are specific settings they should employ to\nemulate this capability? Or maybe they should just drive normally. These are\nthe questions that need to be answered. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It may be a long and drawn-out process, but it is necessary\nas OEMs figure out how to best assist their customers and develop electric big\nrigs they actually want to buy and use. When OEMs and trucking companies\npartner in these developments, everyone benefits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another area that has seen big movement is in the vocational\nrealm. Vocational and utility trucks are tailor-made for electrification. There\nis a lot of interest from utility companies and other operators who could get a\nlot out of medium-duty electric trucks. Not everyone needs a battery-powered\nbig rig, after all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Charging Infrastructure Takes Shape<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although OEMs and trucking companies are working with public\nutilities and local municipalities on charging infrastructure, we still have a\nways to go before we reach the level of saturation we have now with gas and\ndiesel fueling stations. It is well known that charging infrastructure lags the\ndevelopment of the vehicles that will be using it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many are looking at what is called \u201cdepot charging.\u201d This is\na concept where charging stations are installed at fleet locations. Trucks\nwould come home to charge. Electric truck OEMs work with their customers to\ninstall these charging stations at their home office. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many trucking operators are still nervous to rely on public charging infrastructure. This is especially true for fleets that operate irregular routes. It is already hard enough to find decent charging stations on well-known roads and highways. For those going over windy mountain passes, what happens when they use too much charge and come down the other side only to find no charging stations?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">                                      <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trucking companies, OEMs, industry advocates, and other\npartners must work together to ensure that the infrastructure and equipment is\nat-the-ready before we can expect full industry-wide deployment of electric\nvehicles. Still, the wind is at the back of electrification. Expect to see a\nlot more of it was we move deeper into the 21<sup>st<\/sup> century. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>COVID-19 did something that few other things can do: It brought the transportation sector, both passenger and commercial, to a virtual standstill.
