The company financed the purchase of the Volvo FH Electric, which will be utilized for container-shunting activities at QTerminals Kramer Rotterdam (QTKR). This new electric truck will serve clients such as Ocean Network Express (Europe) Ltd. (ONE). In a symbolic gesture of their strong partnership, DM Transport has adorned the vehicle with ONE's recognizable branding.

This initiative builds upon the existing HVO100 scheme, where DM Transport, ONE, and QTKR have collaborated for over a year to lower emissions from local port-shunting. The adoption of the electric truck represents a significant advancement in DM Transport's strategy for reduced-emission transportation, with plans to integrate HVO100 biofuel and battery-electric vehicles.

 DM Transport also aims to expand its electric truck fleet in the future. Max Van Stek, Managing Director of DM Transport, stated, "Investing in our first Volvo FH Electric is an important milestone for DM Transport." He further commented, "For more than a year, we have worked with ONE and QTerminals Kramer Rotterdam through the HVO100 scheme. Introducing an electric truck builds on that progress and gives us valuable experience of operating battery-electric heavy transport in a busy port environment." The company will leverage this truck to acquire practical insights into operating electric heavy transport within demanding daily port operations.
