Launch of ONE Electric Truck Program

Ocean Network Express (North America) Inc. is proud to announce the pilot launch of a ONE Electric Truck Program, connecting the shipping ecosystem. This collaboration utilizes the battery-electric Class 8 Volvo VNR Electric truck, Forum Mobility providing charging solutions, and BoxLinks managing the operations.

This ONE electric truck program is made accessible through the HVIP (Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project), a resource hosted by CARB (California Air Resources Board), California's lead agency for climate change programs.

This program presents an exclusive opportunity for small-sized drayage fleets to gain real-world experience operating battery-electric trucks on their daily routes through a complimentary three-month lease. The leasing contract and operations will be managed by ONE’s regional partner, BoxLinks, a proud member of the LX Pantos Group. 

This trial period allows truck operators the opportunity to experience the benefits of an electric truck. The ONE electric truck program also includes access to truck charging networks through Forum Mobility. These charging depots are conveniently located near California’s busiest ports and drayage routes, further showcasing the accessibility of an E-Fleet.

These types of programs align with ONE’s Key Initiatives, including Carbon Management, Alternative Fuels, and Community Ecosystem Building. This further supports ONE’s global ambition of achieving zero emissions by 2050. The North American debut of the ONE Electric Truck Program aims to promote the use of zero-tailpipe emission trucks, helping navigate toward a carbon-neutral supply chain.

The first ONE-branded Volvo VNR Electric truck will be showcased at the upcoming Trans-Pacific Maritime Conference (TPM24) in Long Beach, CA. This event offers the transportation ecosystem an exclusive preview into the future of sustainable logistics. Join ONE in embracing the future of green transportation!
