If the transport sector is to reduce CO2 emissions by 70% by 2030, a new infrastructure for electric vehicles is required. To contribute to this transition, Boxflow and Soltech Industries are projecting a unique solution: Greenbox. The concept is self-explanatory: Solar cells on the roofs of logistics properties generate green electricity that is stored in batteries, evens out the consumption, and then charges our trucks and cars. A connection to the grid provides power equalization and helps to balance the grid. Furthermore, since the logistics properties are already strategically located along high-traffic European roads, the charging stations become easily accessible. We can use the roofs for solar cells instead of precious arable land. In doing so, Greenbox creates the conditions for maximum utilization of green solar energy.

The advantage of 3PL is that we can share our common resources and create optimal solutions for more efficient logistics and a sustainable world. One example is our energy-efficient logistics sites, where our customers can share warehouse space and expertise according to season and need. As a result, everyone becomes more resource efficient, and the earth’s resources are used more optimally.
