Einride AB
Einride runs autonomous electric trucks on Ericsson 5G, in partnership with Telia and DB Schenker in Sweden.
Description
Einride is a Swedish freight technology company leading the transition to sustainable, autonomous and electric road freight. In 2018, Einride partnered with Ericsson and Telia to put 5G into motion at a DB Schenker logistics facility in Jönköping, Sweden, where Ericsson Radio System and Ericsson Cloud Core for 5G provide high-performance connectivity to Einride's driverless T-pod vehicle.
The installation marked the first commercial deployment of Einride's Autonomous Electric Transportation system, powered by Ericsson's Cloud Core for 5G. Einride relies on 5G's high capacity and low latency to safely introduce autonomous trucks onto public roads, with a stated goal of reducing CO2 emissions in road freight by up to 90 percent and eliminating nitrogen oxide emissions.
