In the first days of December, a new edition of Expo Carga was held, the main event of the cargo transportation industry in Uruguay that takes place every two years at the Punta del Este Convention Center.

BITAFAL had a very active presence at the fair, presenting its electric station project that is under construction at our plant on Route 8 with a stand set up for the occasion.
In addition, our general director Santiago Kröger was invited to speak on the Electric Mobility 4.0 panel, along with the president of Ancap Cecilia San Román, the national director of Energy Arianna Spinelli and the head of Electric Mobility at UTE Diego Bentancur. On that occasion Santiago was able to explain in depth the transformation of the energy matrix of our plant, completely converting to solar energy and biomass, and the scope of the electric station project, powered 100% with energy from renewable sources. Likewise, he commented on the experience that BITAFAL has been developing with its 100% electric high-load truck, the first of these characteristics to circulate in Uruguay.

At the stand we present one of the 500 KW chargers that will be part of the 12 total chargers that the electric station will have, being one of the most powerful in the country, which will be very useful for transport companies, both cargo and passenger. The strategic location of the project positions it as fundamental support for all companies located in that area of ​​Montevideo and in the industrial area surrounding the city of Pando and that wish to transition their fleet to electric mobility.
The occasion was excellent to carry out great networking work by the BITAFAL Commercial and Logistics team, sharing experiences and projecting future actions with companies from different sectors of activity.
