Texas’ first EV charging hub for trucks planned for AllianceTexas
In Texas, Forth Worth Report announced that Texas’s first public commercial EV charging facility designed for trucks and last mile fleets is set for construction at AllianceTexas. The report noted that Hillwood, the developer of AllianceTexas, is partnering with Austin-based Gage Zero on the project. “We see an opportunity here in North Texas to start deploying this,” said Ian Kinne, director of logistics innovation at Hillwood. “A lot of customers have challenges deploying electric trucks, and we just wanted to find the right partner to work with. We feel like this is the right time.” No time frame is set yet for the project, Kinne said. “We’ll announce more at a later time, but we want our customers and potential customers to know we’re committed to providing sustainable infrastructure solutions for our customers,” he said.
