- Truck Costs: Diesel trucks cost 300,000 CHF, and EV trucks 700,000 CHF, with price parity expected in 10 years.
- Recharging: Electric fleets recharge exclusively at the base, consuming 1.3 kWh/km. Source: Scania's real world tests.
- Charging Equipment: Uses Alpitronic 400kW chargers at 100,000 CHF each, with costs halving in 10 years. Installation per charger is 26,000-62,000 CHF initially, with 6,000 CHF for replacement work.
- Solar Installations: Considers cost differences between roof and free standing installations, with provisions for annual maintenance, insurance, and inverter replacements.
- Operational Lifetimes: 30 years for solar panels, 10 years for trucks and charging equipment.
- Fuel and Electricity Prices: Start at 2 CHF/liter for fuel; all prices adjust with yearly inflation.
- Subsidies: Each electric truck is subsidized 40,000 CHF per year until 2030.
- Inflation: Set at 2% yearly for both capital and operational expenses.
- Financing: Capital expenses are financed at a 4% interest rate for the asset's operational life.
- Emissions: Savings calculations are based on diesel not burned (2.7 kg CO2 per liter) and exclude other CO2 impacts.
