Bypassing Grid Delays: How QCD Electrified Its Fleet and Facilities With a Microgrid
Large new facilities in industries like manufacturing, cold storage, and logistics are increasingly facing years-long delays for utility service. One practical workaround: on-site energy systems. This session examines a microgrid project in California where QCD, a national food distribution company, electrified its delivery fleet years ahead of the utility’s projected timeline. Representatives from QCD, microgrid provider Scale, EV charging provider InCharge, and electric truck manufacturer Volvo will walk through the project history, its operational impact, and what it means for other companies navigating the same grid access bottlenecks.
You’ll leave with:
- How QCD structured its microgrid project to accelerate both fleet and facility electrification
- What the partnership between QCD, Scale, InCharge, and Volvo looked like in practice — and where the complexity materialized
- How to determine ifa similar approach makes sense for your operations
