Summary of Dragonize
The company behind it is TST Logistics.
Revenue and personnel: The company employs approximately 3,500 – 4,000 employees, and its revenue is in the hundreds of millions of euros (latest estimates around €400–500 million).
dragonize is a German (initiated by TST Logistics) B2B service platform specializing in charging infrastructure for electric heavy-duty vehicles (eTrucks).
Unlike traditional charging networks, it doesn’t just focus on providing charging points but on a comprehensive ecosystem. Here are its key features:
-
Depot Charging: The focus is on charging at logistics centers and depots, which is critical for managing e-truck schedules.
-
Logistics-oriented: The company originated within a logistics company, so it understands that charging an e-truck is not just “refueling” but part of a broader supply chain and route planning.
-
Full-Service: They handle everything: technical planning, equipment installation, software (booking systems, routing), and continuous maintenance.
-
Integrated Technology: They use AI to predict fault situations and offer a centralized portal where transport operators can view all data and manage their charging in real-time.
In summary: dragonize is a “logistics for logistics” solution that removes barriers to transitioning to electric heavy-duty transport by making charging professional, predictable, and cost-effective.
