Show Notes

Janus Electric, a Central Coast company, is revolutionizing the freight industry by converting diesel trucks to battery power, aiming to cut massive fuel bills. Despite high costs, theyve successfully converted twenty-five trucks, using a smart battery swap system to keep trucks on the road. The shift is not without challenges, as batteries add weight and reduce freight capacity. However, companies like IKEA are investing, and the industry is pushing for government support to build infrastructure and rules for the inevitable electric freight future.
