Road freight transport is responsible for a large part of the emissions produced by the transport sector. To achieve Europe's environmental targets, electrification of the transport sector seems to be the most feasible approach. However, complete electrification of the fleet requires an investment that may not be affordable for many small and medium-sized carriers with limited economic margins. In this respect, gradual electrification of fleet and achieving full utilization of their capacity in meeting total demand is a desirable transition phase. This includes leveraging business models such as resource sharing. This paper proposes an optimization model for cooperative planning of truck carrier operations in a seaport environment, using a mixture of diesel and electric truck fleet. Sharing is motivated by a compensation mechanism and aims to maximize the carriers' profit. The planning approach is evaluated using a data-set and results show the success of the model in generating combinations of trips and assigning them to the heterogeneous fleet of vehicles.
