SUMMARY:Save the date: NEXTETRUCK & ESCALATE joint event on zero-emission freight!
DESCRIPTION:The NextETRUCK and ESCALATE projects invite you to participate in their joint event on zero-emission freight on 28 April from 9-13:15 in meeting room 3B/22 as part of the ITS Europe Congress 2026 in Istanbul. Towards the end of the event\, we will be visiting our pilot truck from Ford Otosan. Register now for an inspiring morning of discussions focused on the decarbonisation of urban and long-haul freight transport.   \nRegister Now\nResearch and development of zero-emission freight vehicles (zHGVs) across all vehicle sizes is a cornerstone of reducing road transport emissions on medium- and long-haul routes. However\, the large-scale deployment of zHGVs faces several challenges\, including cost considerations\, fast-charging and refuelling infrastructure\, digital charging management solutions\, and vehicle performance across diverse operational conditions and climate zones.  \nFord Otosan is a partner in both the NEXTETRUCK and ESCALATE projects\, which address the outlined challenges. During the event\, we aim to showcase the truck used in the Istanbul pilot\, which operates on various routes connecting two Ford Otosan factories in the peri-urban areas of Istanbul.   \nPreliminary agenda \n\n09:00-10:00: Project introductions \n10:00-10:30 Coffee break  \n10:30-11:30: Presentation & open discussion about drivetrain technology of medium-sized & heavy-duty electric trucks\, tested as part of ESCALATE and NextETRUCK pilots \n11:30-12:30: Presentation & open discussion about digital tools of zero-emission trucks  \n12:30-12:45: Conclusion of event  \n12:45-13:15: Visit of NextETRUCK \n\nWhat can you expect from the ITS Congress?  \nThe ITS Congress 2026 will take place from 27–29 April 2026 at the Istanbul International Convention and Exhibition Centre\, near Taksim Square\, in the heart of the city. The congress is expected to attract several thousand European and international stakeholders from across the transport and mobility sectors.

SUMMARY:NextETRUCK launches Green Mobility Exchange side event in Amsterdam
DESCRIPTION:NextETRUCK invites you to attend its free side session at the Green Mobility Exchange\, taking place on 12 May 2026 (11-14:00) at Tolhuistuin in Amsterdam North. \nThrough the inaugural edition of the Green Mobility Exchange\, project partner CENEX NL seeks to broaden the scope of its traditional annual spring gathering by engaging a wider network of stakeholders from industry\, OEMs\, municipalities and regional authorities. The initiative offers participants the opportunity to explore CENEX NL’s latest findings and practical insights in transport\, energy systems and the circular economy. \nRegister Here\n  \nWhat can you expect from the NextETRUCK side event? \nThe programme will open with a concise introduction to the NextETRUCK initiative\, followed by contributions that closely reflect the central themes of the main event. Among these will be presentations on the implementation and validation of megawatt charging technologies developed within the project framework. \nCENEX NL will also showcase its ‘KITE Tool’\, designed to assist fleet operators in evaluating the transition to electric vehicles. By assessing total cost of ownership alongside life-cycle impacts\, the tool provides a robust analytical basis for investment planning and long-term strategy. \nIn addition\, representatives from the AEVETO cluster will deliver brief pitches outlining their respective activities. These contributions will offer a clear and structured overview of complementary research approaches addressing the decarbonisation of road freight and heavy-duty transport. \nWhat does the programme entail? \nThe NextETRUCK initiative is closely aligned with the overarching focus areas of the Green Mobility Exchange\, namely circular charging solutions\, high-capacity charging infrastructure and the reduction of emissions from non-road mobile machinery. While this latter category is not a central pillar of the project\, it remains a critical consideration for urban authorities developing comprehensive climate strategies. Such machinery includes equipment used in construction and agriculture\, as well as tools for landscaping and other handheld applications. \nTo further explore this subject\, a dedicated stakeholder meeting for city representatives will be held on 13 May 2026 at the Amsterdam World Trade Centre. This gathering will outline Amsterdam’s strategy for reducing emissions within its municipal fleet and present supporting analyses carried out by CENEX and FIER\, which have informed the development of a tailored roadmap aligned with the city’s broader climate neutrality ambitions.
