This article, the second in a series, focuses specifically on the initial five-year phase: electrifying ground vehicles at a representative mid-sized European port, a logical and pragmatic first step in achieving a broader, multi-decade decarbonization vision. As demand for Electric Vehicles (EVs) rises, shipping them in containers requires careful risk assessment due to the hazards of Lithium-Ion batteries. Reliable and reusable EV battery packaging is needed to build and service the expected 125 million EVs on the road by 2030. 1 Not only must new large-format batteries be shipped to automotive manufacturers and EV repair centers, but a sustainable plan for end-of-life transport is also essential to. New advanced equipment paired with electrification improves turnaround time and lowers noise. But EVs aren’t like conventional cars—they require specialized care, equipment, and compliance when shipping overseas.
