Joint venture opens first truck charging site in Immingham

[ March 5, 2025   //   ]

Milence, a joint venture between Daimler Truck, Traton Group, and Volvo Group has opened its first charging hub in the UK at Able Humber Port, Immingham.

It says that currently, the UK’s charging infrastructure for electric trucks is limited, with few public charge points that cater for larger vehicles.

Phase one of the hub features four high-performance CCS chargers powering eight bays, with amenities including restrooms and vending machines.

Milence says it is building the largest electric truck charging network in Europe. It aims to have at least 1,700 high-performance charging points across Europe and the UK. Further developments at the Immingham site will see the installation of MSC chargers during phase two of the project.

The Immingham hub, situated on the A180 with direct access to the M180, M18, and M1 motorways, is ideally placed to serve the vital transport and logistics operations connecting the UK with Europe. Able Humber Port handles over 30 ro ro and lo lo sailings a week to and from Northern Europe, Scandinavia, and the Baltic.
