On this episode of Quick Charge, we’re talking about how ports and port authorities are cleaning up their operations with the man in charge of the busiest port in North America — Port of Long Beach CEO Dr. Noel Hacegaba.
We’ve also got a new data-sharing electric semi pilot program at the Canadian port of Vancouver featuring Peterbilt Model 579EV Class 8 trucks, a massive new electric truck deal from Orange EV, and a thousand-year-old idea that seems brand new again.
