Fleets tested Volvo VNR Electric Class 8 tractors for three years: Here’s what they learned. ” Faster charging is typically more expensive because it requires an electrical system to operate at peak power, for which utilities levy higher demand charges, since it puts more stress on the electric grid.

At present, PHEV technology alone is equipped to improve the current electric grid. The car can refuel during periods of low demand on the grid, and if equipped with a bi-directional charger, can actually replenish the grid with excess energy gleaned from a renewable resource.

And there’s 40% of the Class 8 market and the medium-duty market that [drives] under 250 miles a day. And then there’s interoperability and all those standards that we take for granted in the 12- and 24-volt world. The Megawatt Charging System standard is intended to charge a Class 8 truck in 30 minutes. Garbage trucks.

I could drive a Class 8 truck over a light-duty charger, and it will activate one pad of that truck and still charge. I’ve yet to see a single plug-in charger company talk about their grid-to-battery efficiency. It’s in the pavement at a bus stop in the middle of a residential neighborhood. You don’t see it.
