Vinci Energies commits to switching industrial and electrical units to EVs

Vinci Energies has committed to switching all its electrical and mechanical units to electric vehicles (EVs), reducing its carbon footprint by 44% within four years.

It has already replaced 10% of its electrical and mechanical unit fleet with EVs, with the aim of that number reaching 50% by the end of 2021 and 100% by 2024.

“Becoming an early adopter sends a strong message to our customers. Not only regarding our care for the environment but also our belief in EV technologies and our capabilities as a long-established charging infrastructure provider.

“In addition, we will be sharing all lessons learned and expect our EV fleets to serve as a model for the rest of VINCI Energies to follow, reducing our overall environmental impact even further,” said Andrew Hunter, Director of the Actemium UK Industrial Perimeter.
