Janus Electric and Electrovaya Partner to Accelerate Electric Truck Conversions in North America
WHY IT MATTERS
The partnership shows that commercial fleets can still transition to electric trucks despite policy uncertainty, potentially reducing emissions and encouraging further investment in conversion technology.
What happened
Australian firm Janus Electric has teamed with Canadian company Electrovaya to speed up the electric truck conversion market across North America. The collaboration comes amid a sharp U‑turn in U.S.
electrification policy that has stalled new federal incentives for electric commercial vehicles. By combining Janus Electric’s conversion expertise with Electrovaya’s battery technology, the partnership aims to deliver a range of retrofit solutions that could enable fleets to replace diesel trucks with electric alternatives more quickly and cost‑effectively.
The move signals that private sector initiatives can still drive progress in commercial electrification, even when public policy shifts away from large‑scale electric vehicle deployment. The companies plan to roll out their joint conversion kits in the coming months, targeting major freight and logistics operators.
