The bigger and heavier they are, the bigger and heavier the batteries need to be. More than a quarter of greenhouse gas emissions from road transport in the eu comes from heavy duty vehicles. And because nearly everything we eat, drink and where will have been in a big truck at some point, the cleaner, greener future is going to need cleaner, greener haulage. And some manufacturers are pushing on with the switch to electric, as alasdair keane has been finding out. There are millions of heavy goods trucks driving on roads all over the world. But why are so few of them running on electricity? to find out, we are near sweden s capital, home to one of europe s biggest truck manufacturers. They are on the long road to changing an industry that is having a big impact on our planet. This is the largest change our industry

This week should we go for a ride . I think we should. Alasdair keane strapped into a truck with a distance. Difference. But how hard is it to power a drug by battery . You can start with lots of robots. It is quite mesmerising to watch. Love a robot. I know you do. Plus from ten wheels to do but how about a scooter powered by gas . We have also been overrun by rats this week, but ai has a solution in its sites. And there is something weird lurking in the water. Those are my toes you are talking about, and they were freezing. If you leave them in their long enough you will real story here is we are exploring the depths by robots.

This week. What do you think, should we go for a ride . I think we should. Lets go. Alasdair keane strapped into a truck with a difference. But how hard is it to power a 40 tonner by battery . You can start with lots of robots. It is quite mesmerising to watch. Love a robot. I know you do. Plus from ten wheels to do but how about a scooter powered by gas . We have also been overrun by rats this week, but ai has a solution in its sights. And there is something weird lurking in the water. Hey those are my toes you are talking about, and they were freezing. If you leave them in their long enough they will become numb. The real story here is we are exploring the depths by robots.
