We’re Amped to bring you Amped from the 2022 ACT Expo

As soon as Amped co-host and Fleet Equipment Director of Content Jason Morgan stamped his ticket to the 2022 ACT Expo in Long Beach, Calif., I knew we weren’t going to be able to let him go at it alone. So, I crawled into his backpack and stowed away across the country to join him in witnessing the reveal of all the latest mind-bending decarbonization technologies and sustainability-driving services the trucking world has to offer.

Editor’s Note: During the show, I stumped Jason with a question on Xos‘s new medium-duty and heavy-duty truck availability. Here’s the answer: The new chassis cab product will be hitting production in Q1 of next year, and then the tractor product will hit later in 2023, according to Dakota Semler, co-founder, chairman and CEO of Xos.

This is an audio-only version of our episode with Jason Morgan at ACT Expo 2022. Go ahead, you’re already here – take a listen! But if you’re looking for moving pictures, click here. On this one, you’re going to want to see the video. It’s a lot more fun.

Like most ICE vehicle components out there, EV components – everything from batteries to inverters – have a shelf life. When the end of life arrives, in some cases the best thing to do might be to recycle that component down to its raw materials. However, many of these EV components that are failing or degrading over time can be sustainably remanufactured to either extend their life or give them an entirely new life.
