A fully electric truck fleet in Germany would require a quarter of the electricity available for consumption today.
IRU¡¯s two unique decarbonisation modelling tools, developed in-house and endorsed by a university research team in Austria, have been used in a new ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Intelligence Monitoring to estimate electric truck energy needs and associated CO? savings in Europe.
Truck electrification is one of several decarbonisation solutions. As battery-electric trucks become more widespread, they will place increasing pressure on national power grids, many of which are not yet prepared for such demand.

A fully electric truck fleet in Germany or Poland would consume approximately a quarter of the current national electricity supply. For other European countries, consumption ranges between 5-20%.
The CO? savings from replacing diesel trucks with battery-electric ones vary from 0% to over 90%.
