First Large-Scale Carrier to Install Solar Panels on Electric Cargo Bikes in the U.S, Driving Clean Energy Forward

DutchX, the leading zero-emission carrier in the U.S., has taken a groundbreaking step as the first large-scale carrier in the country to install solar panels on electric cargo bikes for last-mile delivery. 

In collaboration with Merlin Solar, a pioneer in crystalline silicon solar technology, DutchX is further strengthening its commitment to clean energy by enabling its delivery fleet to self-generate power. This innovation reduces reliance on grid electricity and emissions tied to battery charging, marking a new era in the logistics industry.

Merlin Solar’s lightweight, high-efficiency panels—engineered to deliver 20% more energy in real-world conditions—allow DutchX’s electric cargo bikes to run on clean, renewable energy. As a next step, DutchX is exploring adding solar panels to other vehicles in its multi-modal fleet, including light EVs and electric vans. This forward-thinking approach is a game-changer for the logistics industry and reinforces DutchX’s leadership in creating smarter, cleaner, and more efficient zero-emission delivery solutions.
