Partnership approach
Driving the shift is not something we can do on our own. Scania is involved in strategic partnerships with key stakeholder, including our customer, buyers of transport services, energy suppliers, infrastructure providers and industry peers.
We focus on building two types of partnership: strategic cross-sector partnerships that target political change; and industry partnerships with our suppliers, customers, infrastructure providers, and others to pilot and scale solutions. They are the most efficient when combined to include all stakeholders.
Industry partnerships
Milence
Electric transport kan only be a viable and sustainable option if vehicles have access to widespread charging network as well as plentiful energy produced from renewable sources.
TRATON GROUP with its brands Scania and MAN together with Daimler Truck, and Volvo Group have signed a binding agreement to install and operate public charging network for battery electric, heavy-duty long-haul trucks and coaches in Europe, under the brand name Milence.
“To find the best solutions for the climate challenge is our most urgent priority as an industry and as the TRATON GROUP. When we talk to customers about electric trucks, they always ask: where can we charge? To support as fast as possible, we are teaming up on kick-starting the European charging network”.
Christian Levin, CEO and President for Scania and TRATON GROUP.
Customer collaborations
We work with our customers as trusted advisors and partners. We develop a deep, holistic understanding of every customer’s entire transport flow, covering not only their own transport needs, but also the needs of their customers.

Partnership and collaboration beyond the transport system
Decarbonising the transport sector calls for collaboration and partnerships beyond the traditional boundaries of the transport system. Scania has initiated several strategic partnerships including with technology companies, industry leaders, academics and government decision-makers to drive the shift towards a sustainable transport system.
