NFI and Prologis Mobility have launched a new electric truck charging depot in Ontario, California.
NFI, an HDT Top Green Fleet, will use the charging depot to support its fleet of nearly 90 electric Class 8 trucks, which handle drayage operations between the Ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach, and the Inland Empire.
The facility supports both Volvo VNR Electric and Freightliner eCascadia trucks, ensuring fleet flexibility and interoperability.
The 1 MW facility includes 10 dedicated charging ports and can charge up to 20 vehicles daily.
“As one of the first logistics companies to deploy electric Class 8 trucks at scale, we recognize that charging access is one of the biggest barriers to adoption,” said Brian Webb, President of Port Services at NFI.
“Through our partnership with Prologis Mobility, we now have an infrastructure solution that keeps our fleet moving, optimizes uptime, and allows us to integrate electric vehicles into our operations efficiently.”
The Right BEV Truck Charging Infrastructure in the Right Locations
Prologis Mobility, which has already helped its customers log over 10 million electric miles, develops and manages charging infrastructure at depots, public and private charging hubs, and workplace charging sites in key logistics locations, delivering a turnkey solution for customers.
“Fleet operators like NFI are making strategic investments in electrification, and accessing reliable charging is critical,” said Henrik Holland, global head of Prologis Mobility.
“We’re focused on delivering the right infrastructure in the right locations, ensuring our customers have access to charging that supports their operations today and in the future.”
