A day in the life

The transition to battery electric and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles will transform how our customers operate their fleets. Driven by economics, policy and/or legislation, more than 30% of fleets will be comprised of zero emission vehicles across the different vehicle classes during the next decade. This translates to 3M vehicles by 2025 and 11M vehicles by 2030 in our North American, European, and Asian markets. 

Prologis has a unique opportunity to leverage its real estate, development platform, renewable energy expertise, and customer base to build a market-leading turn-key electric vehicle charging business.
