About NextETRUCK

The Project

Driving Zero-Emission Logistics Forward

The transport sector is one of the largest contributors to global emissions, with medium-duty trucks playing a significant role. NextETRUCK addresses this challenge by developing and deploying zero-emission electric freight solutions to support the transition toward sustainable logistics.

Collaborative Innovation

Bringing together research organisations, industry leaders, and technology partners, the project focuses on creating innovative, affordable, and scalable solutions for fleet decarbonisation.

Real-World Pilots

To validate its approach in real-world conditions, NextETRUCK is deploying pilot projects in Istanbul, Manchester, and Barcelona.

European Backing

Funded by the 2Zero Partnership, the project aligns with Europe’s goal of achieving climate-neutral transportation by 2050.
