Lotte Global Logistics is expanding its inland transportation of battery energy storage systems (BESS) for LG Energy Solution in the United States.
On August 10, Lotte Global Logistics announced that it will increase its operations to transport BESS produced by LG Energy Solution at its U.S. facilities to various regional demand points.
BESS refers to a system that stores excess electricity generated from batteries for later use.
Since the first half of this year, the company has been responsible for the inland transportation of BESS produced in Phoenix, Arizona. In the second half of the year, it plans to triple the transportation volume compared to the first half, handling a significant portion of the shipments from local factories.
Transporting BESS requires precise control to minimize the risk of damage, as well as compliance with strict standards set by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) throughout the transportation process. To meet these requirements, Lotte Global Logistics has established a dedicated team to enhance local responsiveness and operational expertise.
The transportation process will utilize the company's self-developed artificial intelligence (AI) logistics platform, Shiptte, along with a consulting program based on large language models (LLM). This technology will allow for real-time management of vehicle operation records, optimizing transportation routes and automating paperwork such as reports and invoices.
Lotte Global Logistics aims to strengthen its approach to the North American specialized cargo market by offering integrated logistics services that connect sales, consulting, logistics operations, and information technology (IT).
A company representative stated, "This contract reflects Lotte Global Logistics' advanced logistics capabilities and local responsiveness being recognized in the global market. We will use this as a stepping stone to further solidify our position in the North American high-value logistics market."
Meanwhile, Lotte Global Logistics recently signed a memorandum of understanding with robotics specialist FRT Robotics to jointly develop and commercialize AI-based wearable robots, further enhancing its competitiveness in high-value business through the integration of AI and robotics technology across logistics.
