Supply chain solution provider NFI, a leading North American, and EV charging infrastructure provider Prologis Mobility have jointly announced the launch of a new electric truck charging depot in Ontario, California. The 1 MW facility includes 10 dedicated charging ports and can charge up to 20 vehicles daily.

The charging depot will support NFI’s fleet of nearly 90 electric Class 8 trucks, which handle drayage operations between the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, and the Inland Empire. The facility supports Volvo VNR Electric and Freightliner eCascadia trucks.

“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. “Through our partnership with Prologis Mobility, we now have an infrastructure solution that keeps our fleet moving, optimizes uptime, and allows us to integrate electric vehicles into our operations efficiently.”

Prologis Mobility develops and manages charging infrastructure at depots, public and private charging hubs, and workplace charging sites in key logistics locations, delivering a turnkey solution for customers.

“Fleet operators like NFI are making strategic investments in electrification, and accessing reliable charging is critical,” said Henrik Holland, Global Head of Prologis Mobility. “We’re focused on delivering the right infrastructure in the right locations, ensuring our customers have access to charging that supports their operations today and in the future.”
