Wallenius Wilhelmsen partners with Einride to debut fleet of battery-electric trucks
Keen Transport, a U.S.-based trucking company part of the Wallenius Wilhelmsen group, has partnered with Einride, a Swedish freight mobility company, that will provide electric and digitial technology to develop a sustainable mobility solution for the company's fleet.
Einride will provide Keen Transport with a turnkey mobility solution including battery-electric (BEV) trucks that will be used for shuttle moves between the Port of Savannah and a nearby processing facility in Pooler. Einride will also support the deployment of these trucks including driver training, charging
infrastructure and data insights.
Einride was selected to be a part of the first Plug and Play cohort of startups in Savannah in 2022 that the Savannah Economic Development Authority (SEDA) was proud to be a supporter of. Local connections, including that with Wallenius Wilhelmsen, were made as a result of the partnership.
