Volvo (VLVLY) and Waabi have begun their first joint customer operation, transporting freight for Warp along the Dallas–Houston corridor in Texas. The Volvo VNL Autonomous, powered by the Waabi Driver, is carrying goods directly to third-party facilities within Warp's freight network. Warp provides less-than-truckload services, which combine shipments from multiple customers, as well as full-truckload services.
The operation integrates Volvo Autonomous Solutions' Autona / freight transport ecosystem into Warp's network. Current autonomous hauls have an observer in the driver's seat. Volvo Autonomous Solutions and Waabi plan to use experience from this corridor to prepare additional routes and support broader expansion of autonomous freight in the coming years.
Volvo (VLVLY) reported that its autonomous hauling business has transported more than 3 million tonnes at European mining and quarrying sites.
The total spans current and completed customer sites, including Brønnøy Kalk in Norway and Boliden Garpenberg in Sweden. Autonomous hauling at Brønnøy Kalk began in 2023 and passed 1 million tonnes in 2025. Volvo offers the service as Autona / earth, which includes trucks, infrastructure, operations and fleet management for confined areas.

Volvo Group (VLVLY) and seven partner companies announced coordinated plans to scale hydrogen-powered truck mobility across Europe by 2030.
The initiative builds on a German deployment model where authorities and industry have aligned to enable scalable hydrogen truck operations, now proposed as a template for wider EU rollout. Daimler Truck customers have already driven almost 600,000 km with fuel cell trucks and the company plans a small series of 100 next-generation fuel cell trucks in customer operations from the end of 2026, alongside hydrogen combustion trucks targeted for market launch next year.
Energy partners including Air Liquide, TotalEnergies, TEAL Mobility and MB Energy aim to develop high-throughput refueling stations capable of serving up to 100 trucks per day. Industry leaders call for synchronized EU and national policy support, including funding for infrastructure and vehicles, renewable fuel credit mechanisms and toll incentives, to reach diesel-comparable costs and enable continent-wide adoption.
Volvo Group (VLVLY) plans an energy park in Mariestad, Sweden, as the next step in its local expansion, with initial battery storage capacity of about 70 MW/260 MWh.
The park will be developed along two tracks: a large-scale battery storage facility to support regional grid stability and a future test bed for innovative energy solutions. Volvo Battery Energy Storage Systems from Volvo Energy will be used in the first phase. The site is expected to become operational during 2027 and will serve as a real-scale customer demonstration facility. Located near a planned large-scale battery cell plant scheduled to start production after 2030, the energy park will strengthen Volvo Group’s industrial and logistics cluster in the region.
Volvo Group (VLVLY) and other global transport and energy companies are partnering in Germany to build a full hydrogen truck ecosystem by 2030.
The collaboration, involving Daimler Truck, Toyota, Bosch, Air Liquide, TotalEnergies, TEAL Mobility, MB Energy and policymakers, targets coordinated deployment of hydrogen trucks, refueling stations on key European corridors and competitively priced hydrogen fuel. The aim is to create customer‑oriented infrastructure and a competitive total cost of ownership for heavy‑duty, zero‑emission transport. Further details will be presented at a CEO‑led event at IAA Transportation in Hanover on 15 September.
