The switch is successful for eleven other garbage trucks, which are so-called rear loaders. They are driven by an electric motor. But there is also an immediate problem with these trucks, the councilor reported today. These cars must be charged on the municipal site on Tractieweg. And the maximum loading capacity has been achieved with eleven cars. If the municipality wanted more electric vehicles, they would not be able to charge. Due to grid congestion, capacity on the Tracgtieweg cannot be increased until 2030 at the earliest.
