Presentation

New technologies will help drive road transportation in the future

Road transport is plagued by many challenges: shortage of drivers, zero-emission zones, looming CO2 regulations, etc. We see that things are moving for last-mile and short-distance merchandise transport, but what about long-distance? New technologies and infrastructure to overcome these are yet to be there. We’ll explore in detail the alternative energies, when they’ll be available on a large scale, and how to overcome current challenges for the green transition, as well as the shortage of drivers.
