Schneider President and CEO Mark Rourke said they would soon be taking delivery of nearly 100 Class 8 battery electric vehicles (BEV) at its intermodal operations in Southern California. The new eCascadias have the prospect to avoid over 81,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions per day and over the course of a year is equivalent to removing 2,400 gas-powered cars from the road, the news release stated.

Rourke said battery electric trucks are “crucial in meeting Schneider’s sustainability goals of reducing CO2 per-mile emissions by 7.5% by 2025 and 60% by 2035.” Schneider has already achieved more than half of its 2025 goal by reducing per-mile emissions by 5%.
