DFDS, a leading European shipping and logistics company, has announced a significant step towards achieving its ambitious sustainability goals. The company placed an order for an additional 100 electric trucks, bringing its total electric truck fleet to a staggering 225. This move underscores DFDS's commitment to decarbonizing its operations and playing a leading role in the transition to sustainable transportation in Europe. DFDS Ramps Up Electric Truck Fleet to Meet Growing Demand The newly ordered electric trucks will be strategically deployed across existing markets in Europe where DFDS already utilizes electric vehicles. Additionally, the company plans to expand its electric truck operations into new territories like the UK, Ireland, and Norway. This expansion reflects the growing demand for environmentally friendly transport solutions across the continent. With this substantial order, DFDS solidifies its position as a frontrunner in the electrification of the European heavy-duty transport sector. Niklas Anderson, EVP of the Logistics Division at DFDS, emphasizes the company's dedication to sustainability leadership: "We want to be a driving force in the shift towards more sustainable road transport. Our expanding electric truck fleet goes beyond simply reducing our carbon footprint. It empowers DFDS to support an increasing number of businesses seeking to decarbonize their supply chains. These additional 100 electric trucks are a powerful testament to our commitment to spearheading this crucial development." Strengthening Partnership with Volvo Trucks for Sustainable Solutions The new electric trucks will be sourced from Volvo Trucks, a leading manufacturer of heavy-duty electric vehicles. This order reinforces the strong partnership between DFDS and Volvo Trucks, both committed to accelerating the transition to zero-emission transportation. Commenting on the collaboration, Roger Alm, President of Volvo Trucks, expressed his pride: "We are incredibly honored to continue our close partnership with DFDS. This significant order for an additional 100 Volvo electric trucks signifies their unwavering trust in our company. The substantial growth of DFDS's electric truck fleet demonstrates that zero-emissions transport is a viable solution readily available today." DFDS Paves the Way for a Greener Future This move by DFDS aligns perfectly with their ambitious decarbonization plan, which aims for net-zero emissions by 2050. The company has already set a crucial milestone of electrifying at least 25% of its truck fleet by 2030. With the addition of the new trucks, DFDS currently boasts the largest fleet of heavy-duty electric trucks in Europe. As of the end of 2023, DFDS's existing fleet of 95 electric trucks operating in Sweden, Denmark, Lithuania, Belgium, and the Netherlands has demonstrably reduced greenhouse gas emissions by a significant 1,516 tonnes (Well-to-Wheel). This quantifiable impact highlights the tangible environmental benefits of electric vehicle adoption. Furthermore, DFDS has taken additional steps towards sustainable transportation by deploying 52 electric reefer trailers in Denmark. These specialized trailers offer near zero-emission transport for temperature-controlled cargo like frozen and refrigerated goods. The company's initial order for 100 electric trucks in October 2021, followed by an additional 25 trucks two months later, demonstrates its unwavering commitment to accelerating the electrification of its fleet. Conclusion: A Sustainable Future for European Transportation DFDS's substantial investment in electric trucks represents a significant milestone in the European transportation sector's journey towards a sustainable future. By actively pursuing electrification and forging strategic partnerships with leading manufacturers like Volvo Trucks, DFDS is setting a powerful example for other companies and contributing meaningfully to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This move positions DFDS as a leader in the greening of European transportation, paving the way for a cleaner and more environmentally responsible future. FAQs: Q: How many electric trucks will DFDS add to its fleet with this latest acquisition? A: DFDS plans to add 100 additional electric trucks to its fleet, bringing the total number of electric vehicles to 225. Q: What are the benefits of transitioning to electric trucks for DFDS?

South Korea Goes Greener with Volvo Trucks

    Volvo Trucks says that large flows of goods are transported short distances where electric trucks work very well. South Korea has a national plan to decrease CO2 emissions and aims for carbon neutrality by 2050. Electrifying road transports is one important measure to cut CO2. "We think the timing is just right to start selling heavy electric trucks in South Korea," says Per-Erik Lindström, SVP Volvo Trucks International, and continues: "With 22% market share for heavy-duty trucks in South Korea, we have an important role to play in order to lower the transport sector's CO2 emissions." Volvo Trucks position in Korea (21,5%) in 2022, are based on statistics of registered ICE trucks from KAIDA (Korean Automobile Importers & Distributors Association), in combination with statistics from NICE in Korea, excluding trucks below 16 tonnes.

Since it started production of fully electric trucks in 2019, the company has sold more than 4,300 electric trucks in over 38 countries around the world. Volvo Trucks was the first global manufacturer to start serial production of heavy electric trucks and has a broad electric line-up with a total of six electric heavy trucks. Initially, three of these models will be sold in South Korea. Volvo Trucks sees that many types of transport needs can be electrified in South Korea, ranging from urban distribution and refuse disposal to regional transportation and construction traffic. As a comparison, statistics in Europe show that almost half of all goods are transported less than 300 km. This means that a very large portion of transports can be carried out with the electric trucks, that can be charged at the hauliers' home-depot. "The situation is similar in most countries," explains Per-Erik Lindström. "Large flows of goods are transported short distances where electric trucks work very well. So, when an expanded public network of charging stations is developed, even more transports can be electrified." There are many different factors that affect how quickly the transition to electric goes. "It's obvious that the speed of the electric transition in any country is very dependent on the decisions the authorities make. We see that in the countries that are leading the transition to electric trucks, the progressive governments have combined economic incentives with targeted taxes and environmental zones in cities to greatly speed up the adoption of electric trucks," states Per-Erik Lindström.   Sources: THX News & Volvo.   Read the full article
