Local Business In the News: Chargepoly Powers One of Quebec’s Largest Electrified Commercial Fleets
Granby, QC, Canada / Kirkland, WA, USA
— In a landmark collaboration, Nationex, Fize Électrique, and Chargepoly have joined forces to power one of the largest electric fleets in Quebec, marking a major step towards sustainable logistics in the region and serving as a blueprint to revolutionize fleet operation across Canada and beyond.
A leading parcel delivery company, Nationex, is gearing up with heavy-duty electric vehicles to offer green delivery solutions to their customers, recently hitting the 1 million mark for zero-emission parcels delivered. With Chargepoly’s highly efficient, all-weather charging solution, the newly electrified fleet provides transport services for distances of 250 km as well as last-mile parcel delivery, even throughout the winter—a remarkable achievement that proves the viability of electric vehicles (EVs) for logistics fleets to move goods from seaport to doorstep.
The project is a part of the Québec-Montréal Corridor Vert initiative, which supports the province’s broader plan for a greener economy. The program seeks to electrify key transport corridors across Quebec and into neighboring Ontario. This progressive public-private partnership will significantly improve air quality along transport routes and reduce climate change-inducing greenhouse gas emissions.
A key pillar for Nationex’s fleet electrification success is Chargepoly’s cutting edge, high powered EV charging solution. Chargepoly’s technology delivers industry-leading power efficiency and reliability to optimize charging for medium- to heavy-duty fleet EVs, minimizing charge times and keeping vehicles powered up and moving down the road.
Edwin Richard, Director of Special Projects and Sustainable Development at Nationex, stated, "When we began our electrification journey, we were told it wouldn’t work due to the long distance and harsh weather. Our charging solution integrator Fize Électrique brought in Chargepoly because of their superior technology offering, working hand-in-hand with our team to ensure mutual success. Since the installation, our drivers have experienced a seamless transition to electric vehicles thanks to the user-friendly, reliable charging infrastructure provided by the partnership. We are confident that Chargepoly’s solution will play a crucial role in achieving our mission to electrify 80% of our transport and delivery routes between Montreal and Ontario by next year.”
Chargepoly America’s Chief Executive Officer Laurent Guyon commented, “We’re proud to be a part of this important project with Nationex and Fize Électrique . The installation shows how a shared vision and collective expertise can create cost-effective and sustainable operations for Quebec’s transportation sector and serve as a model for the rest of the world.”
Chargepoly’s technology is designed for the long haul, with charging units capable of up to 400 kW of power. The company also prides itself on its comprehensive level of service, which extends far beyond installation. Through long-term partnerships that include optimization, operation, and maintenance work, Chargepoly is dedicated to the continued success of its customers. To further reinforce its commitment to driving sustainable growth in North America, Chargepoly has invested in local manufacturing in both the USA and Canada, contributing to respective local economies.
As the electrification of long-distance fleets gains momentum, the three companies in this partnership remain dedicated to pushing boundaries and setting new industry standards. By working together, they are paving the way for a more sustainable and environmentally conscious future, one electrified mile at a time.
