Emission-free driving on green electricity

For many business owners electric driving is the logical choice – alongside hydrogen it is the only completely emission-free option. However long charging times limited range and grid congestion still pose challenges.

The government supports EV adoption through subsidies which are especially attractive for light transport that covers short distances and operates frequently in city centres. While EVs emit 100% less CO₂ during driving compared to diesel their production does involve emissions. Especially that of the batteries. Driving on green electricity makes the difference.

Let's sum it up

Hence electric driving

  • Widely available: a growing network of public EV charging locations across Europe

  • 100% CO₂ reduction: with an EV you can go anywhere including city centres where Zero Emission Zones (ZEZ) will apply in the future. No emissions mean cleaner air.

  • Government subsidies: the purchase of EV trucks is made more attractive through government support.

  • Limited range: especially for heavy duty vehicles, electric driving often falls short in range as it requires more power and drains batteries faster.

  • Higher investment in trucks: compared to diesel E trucks are much more expensive. Only hydrogen trucks involve even higher upfront costs.

  • Grid congestion: due to the overload of our electricity grid it is currently difficult to expand the number of new (fast) chargers.

FAQ about Electric driving

These are questions we're frequently asked

What does EV stand for?

EV stands for Electric Vehicle, a term that has also become widely accepted in the international transport sector. Technically, electricity is not a fuel but an energy carrier, where the energy is used to power electric motors.

Who is an EV suitable for?

EVs are particularly well-suited for regional transport with fixed routes, such as delivery vans and light-duty trucks. For heavy long-haul trucks, charging time and driving range are still challenges, though new models are improving rapidly.

What is the range of an E-truck?

An electric truck typically drives 200 to 400 kilometers on a full battery, depending on the model and load. Fast charging allows for partial recharging en route, but long-distance trips require careful planning.

Is driving an E-truck safe?

Yes, electric trucks meet strict safety standards. They have a lower center of gravity (which reduces rollover risk) and no risk of fuel-related fires. However, batteries are heavy, so proper load distribution is essential.

What does an E-truck cost compared to a diesel truck?

An EV truck is more expensive to purchase—roughly twice the price of a diesel truck—but it can save on fuel costs (cheaper electricity) and maintenance (less wear and tear). Government subsidies help offset the initial investment.

Hoe lang duurt opladen van een EV-truck?

Fast charging (DC): 1–2 hours (up to 80%)

Regular charging (AC): 6–8 hours (full charge)
AC charging is ideal for overnight charging at depots, while DC is used for charging on the road.
