Decade Energy secured €22 million in April 2026 to expand its logistics-depot electrification business across Europe — building and operating charging infrastructure at the depot level where fleets’ energy economics are won or lost.
The investment thesis matches our analysis exactly: depot energy at €0.15–0.25/kWh versus €0.60–0.90 public is the single biggest operating-cost lever in electric trucking, and depots are where ~30% of current e-truck sales already live. Capital flowing into the depot layer (rather than only vehicles or public corridors) signals that investors now see the bottleneck the same way fleets do: energy infrastructure, not trucks, is the scarce asset — and grid queues make early depot positions valuable.
Decade Energy’s build-out is one to track for two audiences: mid-size fleets that can’t self-fund a 14 MW depot (a shared, serviced depot model may be their entry route), and the TaaS ecosystem (Einride-type operators whose models depend on exactly this infrastructure). Europe’s depot map will fill through companies like this one; we list operators in our infrastructure coverage as they scale.
