Windrose, Goodman Partners for Heavy-Duty Trucks’ EV Fast-Charging Infrastructure

Property specialist Goodman Groups partnered with electric truck developers Windrose Technology, on Monday. The aim of the partnership is to develop essential EV (electric vehicle) fast-charging infrastructure for heavy duty trucks at Goodman properties.

The firm said it will share technical and sustainability expertise to test and install fast-charging stations, initiate at selected Goodman properties in China and then later expand to United States, Europe and Australia.

California-based Windrose specializes in zero-emissions heavy-duty class 8 trucks (huge trucks with Gross Vehicle Weight Rating over 33,001). The firm said it will build a next generation, zero emission and heavy-duty trucks with an objective to serve customers to move with effortlessness, cross-border commerce and logistics around the world.

In September, Kerry Logistics said it would support Windrose testing of its zero-emissions trucks starting from 2023 to evaluate and plan the deployment of zero-emissions heavy-duty trucks in Kerry Logistics’ operations in both, China and Hong Kong.

Wen Han, chief executive of Windrose said, “Goodman’s commitment to developing high-quality sustainable properties, in key strategic markets globally, will help us accelerate our roadmap in decarbonizing our customers’ supply chains.”

Kristoffer Harvey, CEO of Goodman China said, “Our work with Windrose to implement heavy-duty EV transport infrastructure highlights our innovative approach to finding sustainable solutions that will benefit our customers and the communities we operate in.”
