Zero emission deliveries
James McNaughton Group's logistics subsidiary, gm2 logistics, has taken delivery of its first zero emission electric truck. The truck will deliver genuine reductions in the environmental impact of paper deliveries, saving over 4,250 litres of fuel and around 12 tonnes of CO2 emissions a year, compared with the diesel truck it replaced.
The company is so impressed with the truck's performance it has ordered another to service Belfast-based customers. Looking to the future, gm2 plans to invest more in electric delivery vehicles and is investigating electric trucks that can carry heavier payloads.
Gm2's logistics manager, Peter Hockley, said: "The arrival of the electric truck is another exciting step forward for gm2 and its customers, in terms of doing what we can to reduce the company's environmental impact. As the company converted to 100 per cent renewable electricity in 2006, recharging of the trucks will also be carbon neutral."
