Heavy trucks produce more than a third of all carbon emissions, which is why replacing them with EVs is so hugely important!
Carrier and third-party logistics provider Keller Trucking recently announced that it would deploy an Orange EV fully electric yard truck to a food manufacturing operation in Northwest Ohio. Before the end of the year, Keller will deploy two more Orange EV electric spotters as it works to expand its zero-emission fleet.
“We applaud Keller Trucking’s dedication to augmenting all aspects of the customer experience,” said Zack Ruderman, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Orange EV. “Orange EV’s quiet, emission-free trucks increase the safety and well-being of site personnel and community neighbors while also delivering unparalleled 98-99% uptime, improving reliability and productivity.”
Orange EV trucks come equipped with DTS™ (Digital Truck Systems) and onboard telematics that allow for monitoring, data-gathering, and analysis. Using Orange EV’s advanced digital systems and software, Keller Trucking can provide its customers with instantaneous feedback and real-time performance statistics to further improve their operational efficiency.
Jonathan Wolfrum, President of Keller Trucking, said, “Adding electric yard trucks to our dedicated services solution allows us to continue to provide our customers resourceful solutions to their specific spotting needs. Many manufacturers are implementing sustainability initiatives throughout their supply chains and having an electric yard truck as an option for them supports those company goals. The advantages of these electric trucks in this application are vast, they are very driver centric, cost effective, reliable, and environmentally friendly all in one package. We look forward to increasing the number of electric yard trucks in our fleet.”
