Partnership Establishes All-Electric Bollinger B4 Truck as Part of New TCD Client Solution
OAK PARK, Mich., Sept. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bollinger Motors, Inc., a commercial electric vehicle (“EV”) manufacturer, today announced it has reached an agreement to partner with Texas Consulting & Development LLC (TCD) to supply Bollinger B4 Class 4 trucks as part of TCD’s new, bundled service offering to ports and other related industries. The agreement strengthens TCD’s vehicle portfolio and enhances the company’s Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) and Vehicle-to-Building (V2B) technology offerings.
In addition, TCD will leverage the Bollinger B4 electric truck to stimulate sales across the Commercial & Industrial (C&I), Telecom, and Utility sectors. This strategic move is expected to enhance market penetration and provide comprehensive solutions to a broader range of industries for Bollinger Motors.
“The partnership provides another opportunity for the Bollinger B4 to help companies from a wide variety of industries electrify their vehicle fleets as TCD helps their clients develop solutions for overall clean energy strategies,” said Jim Connelly, chief revenue officer of Bollinger Motors. “TCD is a leader in helping companies reduce their overall carbon footprint, and we’re glad that they have chosen to make the B4 an important element of those efforts.”
Both companies share a commitment to leveraging electrification technology to create operational efficiencies while reducing carbon footprints across multiple industries.
“We’re excited about adding Bollinger Motors’ innovative B4 truck to our suite of solutions. This partnership uniquely positions Bollinger Motors’ commercial trucks with our comprehensive fleet infrastructure charging options that simplify and optimize the integration of EV fleet vehicles,” stated Steven Villarreal, managing partner of Texas Consulting & Development, LLC. “This collaboration makes sense in terms of addressing the future of EV and its aggregated potential for edge energy production – a much-needed solution for grid providers across the U.S.”
The agreement with TCD follows a series of Bollinger Motors’ milestones in recent months including the start of production on the Bollinger B4; providing full warranty coverage of the B4 chassis cab; receiving the Certificate of Conformity from the Environmental Protection Agency; a 145-vehicle sale to Momentum Group, a 70-vehicle sale to Doering Fleet Management, a 50-vehicle sale to EnviroCharge; the addition of TEC Equipment to Nacarato Truck Centers, Nuss Truck & Equipment, and LaFontaine Automotive Group as dealers and service centers; Our Next Energy in Novi, Mich. to supply battery packs; and Amerit Fleet Solutions as its mobile service provider.
In addition, Bollinger Motors recently qualified for federal clean vehicle tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act of $40,000 per vehicle for the B4 chassis cab.
