Powering the Future with All Electric Terminal Trucks

Terminal trucks, also known as spotters, yard dogs, or goats, are used to move trailers within cargo and intermodal facilities. Low-speed, high-power operations in terminal truck settings emit far more exhaust than diesel trucks running at highway speeds - which not only threatens surrounding communities, but is also a health risk for workers on site. The impact on driver satisfaction and lower fuel and maintenance costs make all-electric terminal trucks an attractive business proposition while improving the air quality for the entire region.
Join MEC and our project partners who have led the charge in deploying all-electric terminal trucks in the Kansas City region and beyond. They will share their experiences and best practices for deployment, the benefits of ditching diesel, feedback from drivers, and what has surprised them in their journey going electric.
