BELOGIC · Innovative models and integrated digital tools for Battery Electric long-haul LOGistICs
BELOGIC accelerates the large-scale deployment of battery-electric trucks in long-haul logistics by combining innovative logistic models with advanced digital tools and demonstrating that the cost of operating battery-electric trucks can be lower than operating with ICE vehicles. The project starts from a solid baseline analysis of current missions, barriers, and enablers, and co-designs new operational models with leading logistics service providers. These models are validated through advanced simulations and real-world demonstrations across Europe, covering diverse corridors, vehicle types, and mission profiles.A portfolio of interoperable digital tools is developed and integrated into existing transport and fleet management systems, enabling efficient planning, relay operations, smart charging, and cross-border services. The demonstrations provide TRL 7–8 evidence of feasibility, while high-resolution data collection and impact assessment deliver robust insights for large-scale replication.The main participants are 5 leading European logistics operators, who work together with OEMs, RTOs and software providers to ensure that its results translate into actionable deployment strategies, policy recommendations, and commercially viable solutions. By supporting the operations of BEVs with advanced digital tools, BELOGIC reduces the costs, improves the reliability, and cuts the emissions.
