Driving the future of Zero-Emission Transport.
At Janus Electric, we are reimagining road transport with breakthrough technology that harnesses existing electrical infrastructure to deliver a 100% carbon-zero solution.
Our commitment to a cleaner, more sustainable world has led us to create an innovative system that electrifies Class 8 Prime Movers, setting a new standard for eco-friendly transport.
Be at the forefront of the next phase of road transport with Janus Electric
Janus Electric’s advanced exchangeable battery system seamlessly powers electric heavy trucks. In just four minutes, a vehicle's battery can be swapped at one of our Janus Electric Charge & Change Stations, which can be powered by renewable sources like solar and wind. This fast and reliable process ensures that vehicles are back on the road quickly, supporting continuous, zero-emission transport.
Our pioneering technology results from collaboration between skilled engineers and experienced transport operators, all united by a vision to transform the transport industry. Janus Electric offers the road transport industry a smarter, safer, and cleaner alternative.
100% Carbon Zero
Our viable next-generation battery technology delivers a world-first zero-carbon solution for the electrification of road transport fleets. The Janus Electric technology features a battery that can be charged utilising renewable energy sources such as solar, wind and hydro. This creates a demand for renewable energy during the day which means better utilisation of the national electricity grid, which offers utility providers and governments significant return on green technology infrastructure.
​As the batteries are not permanently fixed to the truck, they can be charged at any Janus Electric Charge and Change Station in four minutes. The Janus (patent pending) Change & Charge Station utilises renewable energy to provide a three-way system - grid to battery, battery to battery, and battery to grid. This enables renewable energy to be fed back into the grid, assisting to balances and minimise surges and outages.
Convert Existing Vehicles
The impossible has been made possible by the Janus Electric technology! Existing fleets can be converted to the Janus System. Janus is able to convert any existing prime mover turning it into an electric vehicle. This significantly reduces the need for capital investment in completely new vehicles.
​
Note: Converting - The process of replacing existing machinery or parts that were not there when it was built. Janus trucks convert existing diesel engine trucks due for a rebuild or replacement, with a new electric motor at a comparative cost to rebuild an existing diesel motor.
​
Converting existing diesel-powered trucks with Janus Electric technology can reduce capital costs by up to 70%.

Significant Cost Reduction
At the core of every transport and logistics business is the daily management of operating costs and margins. Fleet electrification will revolutionise existing operating costs and deliver significant proven savings to the bottom line over a vehicles lifetime.
​
The Janus fleet electrification solution will provide for up to a 60% reduction in maintenance and operating costs over the vehicle's lifetime. Electrification means no oil changes, no oil filters, no air filters, no fuel filters, and a massive reduction of heat also extends the life of brakes and tyres. Operationally fleets are also cheaper to run as the cost of electricity is cheaper than diesel per km. ​
​
Not adapting to new electrified fleets means transport companies running on traditional diesel fleets will be left behind by energy and cost-efficient electrical fleet operators. In Australia, we estimate that by 2030 50% of the Australian Road Transport fleet will be electric.
Interchangeable Parts
The Janus battery technology is a game-changer as the fleet owner is not locked into one type of battery cell technology. As new technology is developed, the Janus Electric battery has been created to be fully upgradable with new emerging battery technology.
​
We estimate the current Janus battery cell technology will have a life of up to 8 years. As cell technology changes it is simply integrated into the existing battery form factor.
Cleaner Work Environment
The full automation of the transmission and removal of the diesel engine means the vibration, noise, and harmful fumes from the drivers operating environment have been removed, which has positive benefits on driver well-being and for all road users.
