To reduce CO2 emissions in its operations, Nippon Express USA has launched its first electric truck, which emits no CO2 or pollutants, at its San Antonio Sales Office in Texas.
The company plans to introduce 14 electric trucks this fiscal year in Los Angeles, Chicago, Raleigh (North Carolina) and other locations, and expects to reduce CO2 emissions from its own operations by approximately 11% during the first year of use.
In addition to reducing CO2 emissions in its own operations, NX Group is seeking to promote both global environmental conservation and business growth by developing and providing products and services that help its customers decrease their CO2 emissions.
NX Group will support customers finding it difficult to cut their Scope 1 and 2 CO2 emissions by setting up customized electric truck operation schedules and quantifying the amount of CO2 emissions that can be reduced, in support of its customers’ efforts to reduce CO2 emissions in their logistics activities (Scope 3).
