Sustainability

As one of our three core values, sustainability in all its forms guides EV Cargo’s global operations and we have become the first logistics company in the UK to have our decarbonisation targets validated and approved by the Science Based Targets initiative.

Taking a ‘fewer miles and friendlier miles’ approach, we have pioneered initiatives to reduce emissions across customer supply chains, including switching over 5 million delivery km from traditional diesel to HVO fuel, reducing emissions in associated vehicles by 90%.

Fewer Miles
Network efficiency, moving the same volume of freight for our customers using fewer miles by maximising cube utilisation and load fill, minimising empty and unplanned miles and maximising modal switch.

Friendlier Miles
Emissions efficiency, running the miles we do use with fewer emissions by switching to alternative sustainable fuels, maximising the fuel economy of our truck drivers and minimising the average age of our fleet.
