Aidrivers and Rocsys partner to decarbonize ports

Aidrivers, a provider of AI-enabled autonomous solutions for port logistics, has partnered with Rocsys, a manufacturer of hands-free charging solutions for electric vehicles. This collaboration will enable Aidrivers to support the port operators to implement safer and connected charging solutions for sustainable autonomous port operations and achieve zero-down operations of net zero solutions.

AI-enabled robotic systems

By integrating Rocsys’ advanced robotic charging technology with Aidrivers’ autonomous digital infrastructure, the partnership is intended to create mutual compatibility to deliver seamless, fully connected and self-managed charging processes for autonomous electric terminal tractors (TTs). This alignment is also projected to support the shift toward sustainable, zero-emission operations while maximizing operational efficiency and ensuring a complete solution for autonomous deployment.

The collaboration leverages real-time data exchange and next-generation AI-enabled robotic systems to deliver fully self-managed charging. With a focus on industry-wide standardization and scalability, Aidrivers and Rocsys plan to support the transformation toward decarbonized and connected port operations.

Net zero port operations

Dr Rafiq Swash, CEO of Aidrivers, said, “As we join forces with Rocsys, we are enabling a new era of smart, sustainable port operation for a zero-waste and zero-downtime future. Our partnership strengthens our shared vision to support port operators in their decarbonization and sustainability plan.”

Crijn Bouman, CEO and co-founder of Rocsys, said, “Rocsys is thrilled to partner with Aidrivers and harness cutting-edge soft robotics, AI technology and electric vehicle digital infrastructure, to help port operators charge their electric vehicle fleets safely, efficiently and without compromising performance. This partnership represents a significant step forward in helping to decarbonize global logistics, drive innovation and shape the future of port infrastructure.”
