Trucking is an integral part of modern supply chains, employing millions, creating revenue, and, unfortunately, contributing to climate-change through tailpipe emissions. Semi-trucks are usually thought of as background players in the climate-change story, rather than a major contributor. In the U.S., medium and heavy-duty trucks produce more emissions than passenger cars and rail combined. In 2022, the U.S. EPA released a report that cited transportation as the top sector responsible for U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, coming in at 28%, just above electricity. Join Nikola, the first OEM to launch both a fully battery electric and hydrogen fuel cell Class 8 truck in the U.S., for an engaging panel on why sustainability is becoming increasingly important in the trucking industry.
