Greenlane Infrastructure, a public charging infrastructure developer and operator for commercial electric trucks, is expanding its nationwide network into Texas with new high-power charging sites planned in Dallas and Houston along the I-45 corridor.
The Dallas-Houston corridor sits at the intersection of freight moving from the West Coast, the Midwest, and across the U.S.-Mexico border, making it one of the highest-volume commercial trucking routes in the country.
New locations will feature 6-8 pull-through lanes with chargers supporting both CCS connectors for current-generation trucks and megawatt charging system (MCS) connectors for next-generation vehicles. Each site will also offer parking to support drop-and-hook relay operations and overnight stops.
āOur customers are making commitments to electrify their fleets, and they need a charging network that can grow alongside them,ā said Patrick Macdonald-King, CEO of Greenlane, in a statement.
Electric trucking carrier Nevoya has committed to multi-year operations on the Texas corridor, leveraging Greenlane’s network to extend its electric trucking operations from California into Texas.
The Texas expansion builds on Greenlane’s growing West Coast network, anchored by its flagship Greenlane Center in Colton, California. Additional California sites in Blythe and at the Port of Long Beach are expected to open later this year.
Macdonald-King continued, āThis is the first leg of the Texas triangle, one of the more important freight arteries in the country, so bringing high-power charging there is the next logical step in building a network that serves how freight moves across America.ā
