AdvertisementGilligan says that companies and councils are increasingly catching up with consumer demand for electric vehicles.
"A lot of companies and councils are seeing the adoption of this technology as being the right course of action. Not just for decarbonisation and green reasons but it also makes business sense."We provide a 300 kilowatt drive system to a manufacturer of refuse collection vehicles in the UK. Those vehicles can do 14 hours in service and around 2,500 bin lifts in a single day. With logistics trucks for the NHS we’ve packaged them up to do around 150 miles on a single charge.
Magtec is capable of both “repowering” existing vehicles to make them electric or installing new vehicles with their systems.Gilligan says he is proud to work for a company which appears to have a genuinely exciting future."To be leading a business that stands in front of all of this opportunity is very exciting. The team around me are here because of the impact they can have on their region.
