Fenexity at the LOG Handelslogistik Kongress 2026: Electrification is an operations and energy challenge

Fenexity attended the LOG Handelslogistik Kongress at the former German Bundestag in Bonn on 22 April 2026. For retail logistics, electrification is more than replacing a vehicle: routes and shifts, grid-connection capacity, charging infrastructure, and energy costs all need to work together in day-to-day operations.

Operational readiness needs one connected system

The conversations and programme sessions reinforced how closely operational reliability and energy decisions are now linked. Electric commercial vehicles need to be ready for their time windows without creating avoidable peak loads or additional complexity at the depot. That cannot be achieved by considering vehicles, charge points, and energy as separate systems. For Fenexity, this confirms the core of our approach: charging plans must reflect actual operational requirements. Only when route and shift windows, available connection capacity, and energy costs are considered together can electrification become predictable.

From individual solutions to repeatable operating logic

Retail logistics works across very different depot and fleet configurations. That is precisely why it needs an operating logic that does not end at one site: transparent metrics, a clear view of vehicle readiness and charge-point usage, and planning that works with real-world constraints. The congress showed that the sector is increasingly considering costs, resilience, and implementation together. We are bringing these perspectives into our product work and our conversations with logistics companies that want to make electrification dependable in everyday operations.
