Janus Electric Holdings Limited has announced securing approximately A$45 million in new orders from four new fleet operators in the United States, significantly expanding its North American order book. These orders, comprising 67 diesel-to-electric truck conversions, 77 swappable battery sets, and four Janus Charge & Change Stations, are conditional upon the successful application for California state incentives. These incentives are critical in making the conversions economically feasible for operators such as Golden State Express, WEHACO, Tradelink Transport, and King Fio Trucking, who already have experience in operating battery-electric trucks. The orders increase Janus Electric's US conversion projects to 87, with plans for manufacturing and delivery slated to begin in late 2026. This expansion is part of the company's strategic growth initiatives across key markets.
