“As the leading fleet electrification provider, InCharge Energy and ABB E-mobility are thrilled to play such an important role in Sysco’s transition to electric transportation,” said Terry O’Day, COO and Co-Founder of InCharge Energy. Already tested for vehicle interoperability and reliability, these stations will facilitate quick and timely charging of all vehicles daily. InCharge Energy and ABB E-mobility are supplying and preparing to activate 40 Terra 124 DC fast chargers. By generating electrical energy to power electric TRUs, trailer temperatures are sustained for food safety purposes, whilst providing large diesel savings to the fleet and significant emission reductions for the local community,” said Marc Trahand, VP and General Manager of ConMet’s eMobility division. We’re honored to have the ConMet eHub™ in-wheel motor system on Sysco trailers. “The commitment shown by Sysco with this facility is a prelude to a more sustainable future for foodservice delivery. We’re grateful to our many partners on this journey for their vision, innovation and leadership in bringing the transportation and infrastructure technology to market to support this project.”ĬonMet and ConMet eMobility are enabling the development of zero-emission commercial vehicles, providing innovative technology for the electrification of refrigerated trailers required for Sysco to deliver food safely and efficiently. “We are excited to showcase Sysco’s work to build our first Electric Vehicle Hub at our Riverside, CA site,” said Marie Robinson, Sysco’s Chief Supply Chain Officer. “This is a massive collaborative effort that has required years of planning. ![]() To accommodate the energy demands of this growing fleet, the Riverside site will also feature 4 MWh of battery storage and will increase its solar power generation by an additional 1.5 MW. Once completed, the facility’s currently planned EV infrastructure will include:Ĥ0 dual port DC fast-charging stations in support of “Change of this magnitude requires deep collaboration and I want to thank our government and community partners who are helping bring our vision to life.”Ĭurrently, Sysco operates eleven Freightliner battery electric eCascadia tractors at its Riverside facility and expects to deploy 20 total by summer 2023. Our commitment is coming to life in Riverside as we break new ground on one of the first facilities of its kind in the world,” said Neil Russell, Sysco’s Chief Administrative Officer. “This year’s theme for Earth Day is ‘invest in our planet’ and Sysco is doing just that. One of the first electric vehicle hubs of its kind in the world, the Riverside project is a foundational step toward Sysco’s goal to reduce its direct emissions by 27.5% and add 2,800 electric trucks to its U.S. RIVERSIDE, Calif., Ap(GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Sysco Corporation ( NYSE:SYY), the world’s largest food distributor, unveiled its vision for the Riverside Electric Vehicle Hub, which will transform the company’s distribution center into the focal point of its electrified fleet. ![]() Riverside, CA Site Infrastructure Will Power 40 Electric Tractors, 40 Electric Refrigerated Trailers, and will be Supported by 4MWh Battery Storage and 1.5MW Solar Power Generation
