It shows how committed Republic Services is to zero-emission vehicles. Road testing commences in 2022 and full production will happen shortly after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the Features of Nikola Tre?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Fuel-cell technology. Hydrogen fuel cells power these electric waste trucks.<\/li>\n<li>Nikola Tre refuse trucks can serve up to 150 miles maximum.<\/li>\n<li>Nikola&#8217;s eco-friendly waste truck can provide 1,200 cans per single recharge.<\/li>\n<li>Nikola Tre refuse trucks are zero-emission Class 8 trucks, with power of up to 1,000 hp. This is three times more power than other natural gas and diesel vehicles offer.<\/li>\n<li>Nikola trucks operate quietly.<\/li>\n<li>Each Nikola Tre waste truck carries 720kWh energy storage.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>With these features, truck operators can expect these units to go uphill with heavy loads without any issue. Nikola Tre is set to outperform other natural gas and diesel competitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nikola Motors and Republic Services in Partnership<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Republic Service is America&#8217;s top 2 recycling and solid waste provider. It is a leader in providing sustainable and environmentally responsible solutions to customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nikola Motors and Republic Services are aligned in mission and vision. The Nikola Tre, for instance, is all about sustainability. The refuse truck is zero-emission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The parts are also scaled down. The unit uses the same controls, batteries, e-axle, and inverters. This means lower costs and inventory production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Republic Services makes a logical choice in turning to Nikola Motors for more eco-friendly ways to operate its recycling and solid waste programs. If Nikola Tre performs to expectations, more and more communities will be seeing these silent, pollutant-free waste trucks going by.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republic Services looked to Nikola Motors for an eco-friendly way of dealing with environmental waste.
