What part do public actors play in the electrification of the logistics sector? Are there differences between countries in the North Sea Region and how can we drive the development in a direction that facilitates the transition on national and regional levels? This was investigated during a SELECT workshop that gathered insights from the North Sea Region. Watch a recording of the presentations here!
The SELECT project gathers local and regional authorities together with business support organizations from the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, and Sweden. The partners will work to explore prerequisites for supplying electric light and heavy-duty fleets with sufficient power and energy at logistics terminals and public locations, and to explore potential new services enabled by digital solutions, and governance structures needed to support the transition.
As part of the work, the SELECT project partners are exploring the role that public actors have in supporting the electric transition in logistics.
During this workshop actors from the North Sea region explored the role of public actors, looked at differences and similarties between countries, got inspired by different initiatives and discussed what the progress looks like within the different countries.
Presenting inspirational initiatives were:
- Heavy Duty Charging in the Netherlands – Tim Frikkee, LOLA
- Electrification of City Fleet – Veerle De Meyer, City of Mechelen
- Heavy Duty Charging in Hamburg – Marvin Coböken, hySolutions
- Electrification Plan for the City of Gothenburg – Anne Piegsa, Business Region Gothenburg
