An Einride electric truck with Heineken driving down a road.

Heineken

Einride and Heineken partnered up to ship beer from Heineken’s brewery in The Netherlands to its distribution center in Germany. The product has to move fast to stay fresh, but each truck weighs thousands of tonnes, so the key to taking Heineken electric lay in finding the right charging solution. Using our purpose-built algorithm, we assessed vehicle data and route topography to predict the perfect charging schedule for drivers and help them access the right chargers along the route.

Crossing-border shipping is now cleaner than ever

Heineken plans to reach net-zero carbon emissions in the value chain by 2040, but logistics represents 12% of their total carbon footprint. By partnering with Einride, Heineken gained the knowledge, network and vehicles needed to lower transport emissions by up to 95%. It is Heineken’s first ever cross-border electric freight route, and will lower CO₂e emissions by ~930 tonnes per year,
