This deployment follows the signing of a transport service contract between UltraTech, EIM and a logistics service provider. The deployment is among the largest of its kind in the cement sector in northern India and marks a significant step in establishing the viability of long-haul electric heavy-duty trucking in the country, stated the company.
It further added that the fleet, comprising 45 electric trucks, each of 55-tonne capacity, is projected to reduce over 8,900 tons of CO2 emissions annually, displacing the equivalent of about 2.9 million litres of diesel per year.
Speaking on the development, K.C. Jhanwar, Managing Director, UltraTech Cement, said, “India’s ambition for clean, energy-secure transportation demands industry action, and UltraTech is committed to being at the forefront. This deployment reflects our belief that decarbonising logistics is as strategic as decarbonising production. By shifting long-haul clinker movement to electric, we are aligning with the country’s stated objective to reduce dependence on imported fossil fuels, while building a supply chain that is resilient, responsible, and future-ready.”
UltraTech claims to be among the first in India to introduce ‘Green Logistics’, deploying CNG trucks in 2021, LNG trucks in 2022, and electric trucks in 2024. The company continues to partner closely with its logistics providers to transition from diesel to cleaner fuels. As of FY26, UltraTech operates 638 CNG trucks, 32 LNG trucks, and 89 electric trucks across its various manufacturing units, stated the company.
