Scania has established a dedicated charging company, Erinion, to offer private and semi-public charging solutions for its customers with more than 40,000 new charging points confirmed by 2030.
The company will provide solutions for depot and destination charging, Scania has outlined, aiming to accelerate electric truck adoption as the manufacturer shoots for 50% of its sales volume to be electric by 2030.
Erinion will establish its market presence in Sweden, Norway, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France and Germany, with a global rollout to follow.
Scania has confirmed that Erinion will adopt a brand-agnostic approach, allowing businesses of all types, regardless of vehicle brand, to benefit from charging infrastructure and operational services.
It is projected that 230,000 electric trucks will be on European roads by 2030 and to support this growth Erinion plans to install a minimum of 40,000 charge points at customer locations by that time.
“With our solution, customers get peace of mind and can focus on their core business, while a specialised charging unit takes care of the hardware, software, financing and operational services required to operate charging at scale with superior quality and cost efficiency,” Scania Group Head of Energy and Infrastructure, Jonas Hernlund said.
