Daimler Truck partners with Salem Carriers and Electrada on logistics electrification project


Daimler Truck North America (DTNA), based in Portland, Oregon, and Salem Carriers, a dedicated contract logistics company headquartered in North Carolina, have collaborated to electrify DTNA’s inbound logistics operations at the Salem Carriers hub near Charlotte.

Also involved are Daimler Truck Financial Services (DTFS) and Electrada, a fleet electrification services company headquartered in Cincinnati, which together will provide an all-in-one CaaS package with a fixed monthly rate. The service package encompasses the development, operation and maintenance of the charging infrastructure along with the energy contract and en route top-off charging at the Duke Energy/Electrada mobility microgrid in Mt. Holly, North Carolina. DTFS integrates the vehicle lease, electric service program, insurance and other components into a predictable cost structure.

“Introducing battery electric vehicles to our operations was a new initiative,” said Dennis Giff, General Manager at Salem Carriers. “The DTFS/Electrada approach was unified, aligned with our operating needs, and set the stage to scale future electric vehicle integration into our services.”
