NFI and Prologis Mobility launched a new electric truck charging depot in Ontario, California. The 1 MW facility features 10 dedicated charging ports and charges up to 20 vehicles daily.
This depot supports NFI’s fleet of nearly 90 electric Class 8 trucks. They handle drayage operations between the Ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach, and the Inland Empire. The facility charges both Volvo VNR Electric and Freightliner eCascadia trucks, providing fleet flexibility and interoperability.
“As one of the first logistics companies to deploy electric Class 8 trucks at scale, we recognize that charging access is one of the biggest barriers to adoption,” said Brian Webb, President of Port Services at NFI. “We now have an infrastructure solution that keeps our fleet moving, optimizes uptime, and allows us to integrate EVs into our operations efficiently.”

That ensures our customers have access to charging that supports their operations today and in the future.”
Prologis Mobility built the Ontario electric truck charging depot as part of a growing national network. These hubs help fleet operators stay efficient by ensuring access to high-powered, reliable charging.
