Affordable road freight with zero emissions

New Energy Transport is a vertically integrated trucking company that combines low-cost renewable energy and electric trucks to deliver zero-emission heavy road freight. The company is pioneering an innovative business model which utilises onsite batteries and the wholesale electricity market to match the cost of diesel-based freight.

First route will be operational in early 2026

New Energy Transport is building a network of strategically located charging depots along the Australian eastern seaboard, which will enable us to deliver interstate zero-emission primary freight services.

The first of these sites will be developed early next year, allowing us to offer a secondary freight service in the Sydney and Wollongong region, before the full network is developed.

If you are interested in a zero-emission freight service within the Sydney or Wollongong region, or you would like to know more about the Sydney to Melbourne route, please contact us for more information.
