Electrification of the freight sector will have a high impact on limiting emissions from the transport sector and this will only be possible through a focused and collaborative effort. While cross-stakeholder engagement lays down the groundwork for collaboration, deep-dives sessions are needed with each stakeholder of the freight ecosystem for focused outcomes and action points.

The objective of these focused group discussions is to create a detailed understanding of issues faced by each stakeholder of the freight ecosystem. This will help in creating a pathway to resolve them together.
