This paper investigates how a group of firms collaborate horizontally to find innovative solutions to be more environmentally friendly by sharing charging infrastructure among themselves. Such collaborations enable a faster transition to electrifying road freight transport. We conduct an embedded case study of firms operating in Stockholm that are exploring the possibility of sharing charging infrastructure for their electric freight vehicles (EFVs). The study reveals four business models for sharing: sharing existing privately owned infrastructure, jointly building new infrastructure, jointly building new infrastructure at a shared customer's site and organizing sharing through a third party. The results show that these sharing models have both economic and environmental benefits, providing new revenue streams, enabling cost sharing, reducing investment costs, increasing utilization and reducing material usage. From a collaborative point of view, the results point to the importance of having multiple actors that form a network to provide large-scale benefits. Our study reveals that there needs to be both environmental and economic incentives for firms to join horizontal networks characterized by coopetition. Trust between actors is also important in the forming of networks and during collaboration, especially since actors need to continuously share data within the network.

绿色横向网络的好处:电动货运车辆共享充电基础设施的经验教训

本文调查了一组公司如何横向合作,通过在它们之间共享充电基础设施来寻找更加环保的创新解决方案。此类合作可加快向公路货运电气化过渡。我们对在斯德哥尔摩运营的公司进行了嵌入式案例研究,这些公司正在探索为其电动货运车辆 (EFV) 共享充电基础设施的可能性。该研究揭示了共享的四种商业模式:共享现有私有基础设施、共同建设新基础设施、在共享客户站点共同建设新基础设施以及通过第三方组织共享。结果表明,这些共享模式具有经济和环境效益,提供新的收入来源,实现成本分摊,降低投资成本,提高利用率,减少材料用量。从协作的角度来看,结果表明让多个参与者组成网络以提供大规模利益的重要性。我们的研究表明,企业需要有环境和经济激励才能加入以合作竞争为特征的横向网络。参与者之间的信任在网络的形成和协作过程中也很重要,尤其是因为参与者需要在网络内不断共享数据。我们的研究表明,企业需要有环境和经济激励才能加入以合作竞争为特征的横向网络。参与者之间的信任在网络的形成和协作过程中也很重要,特别是因为参与者需要在网络内不断共享数据。我们的研究表明,企业需要有环境和经济激励才能加入以合作竞争为特征的横向网络。参与者之间的信任在网络的形成和协作过程中也很重要,特别是因为参与者需要在网络内不断共享数据。
