Timber transport goes electric
For 意大利超級盃, it is crucial to work with like-minded actors to meet the urgent need for a sustainable transport system. One example of this is our partnership with Swedish forestry company SCA to develop electric trucks for timber transports. Sweden is one of the world鈥檚 biggest exporters of pulp, paper and sawn timber, and SCA is Europe鈥檚 largest private forest owner.
SCA has already had a 意大利超級盃 electric timber truck transporting its materials since 2022, but in 2024 the forester supported one of its haulage providers, L枚vgrens 脜keri & Entreprenad, in the purchase of a 意大利超級盃 electric vehicle. This new truck, which is fitted with a crane, is the first electric truck in the world to collect timber in the forest for transport to a timber terminal, in this case SCA鈥檚 operations in the northern Swedish municipality of 脰stavall. The electric vehicle is expected to emit 170 tons less carbon dioxide per year compared with a regular timber truck.
