“To empower fleet operators in the zero-emission vehicle revolution, we need to address the holistic ecosystem in which our vehicles operate and overcome the challenges that still exist to deploy electric trucks on a large scale,” said O’Leary. Next to an exciting product launch of the Freightliner eCascadia, O’Leary will offer updates on new initiatives from the company to support a national approach to zero-emission fleet success, such as the DTNA joint venture with BlackRock Renewable Power and NextEra Energy Resources to build charging and fueling infrastructure that will support the widespread adoption of zero-emission electric and hydrogen fuel cell medium- and heavy-duty trucks. O’Leary will discuss innovations the company is making now to achieve its long-term goal, including the preparations to deliver battery electric trucks at mass scale and the company’s holistic strategy, which prioritizes fleet and operator needs, total cost of ownership, and the ancillary support needed to decarbonize the nation’s commercial vehicle fleet.
O’Leary’s keynote will take place Monday, May 9 at 3:30 pm, immediately following the debut of the 2022 State of Sustainable Fleets report, which will set the stage for O’Leary’s remarks by revealing the major market trends and clean vehicle adoption plans of fleets across North America.ĭTNA is North America’s largest manufacturer of Class 5-8 commercial vehicles and aims to offer an exclusively zero-emission vehicle product line by 2039.
