Powering Regional Australia’s Freight Future.From Port Macquarie · For regional Australia

Our story

Regional roots.
A shared ambition.

ZeroEmi brings operations, technology and finance together around a practical path to electric freight for regional Australia.

Built from Port Macquarie

The next chapter
starts with listening.

What does the operator need to keep a contract moving? What makes a charging stop usable? What evidence makes a fleet decision credible?

Those questions connect our work. The operator platform helps organise the day. Fleet planning helps assess the next vehicle. Regional demand helps inform where charging could belong.

We are building a business around making those pieces work together, with clear responsibilities and realistic steps between an idea and an operating service.

The founders

Three founders.
One regional home.

All three ZeroEmi founders live in Port Macquarie. We bring experience in operations, technology and finance, with a shared commitment to the region we call home. Our aim is to help regional operators make practical fleet decisions and develop charging infrastructure around their needs.
