UltraTech Cement announced plans to deploy 100 additional electric trucks to enhance its logistics operations, following a successful initial pilot with five trucks earlier this year.
The company signed a new contract for transporting 75,000 MT of clinker monthly from its cement manufacturing unit in Madhya Pradesh to Maharashtra. This move aligns with India's eFAST initiative, targeting 500 electric trucks by June 2025.
UltraTech Cement's commitment to sustainable practices has led the company to pioneer Green Logistics in the cement industry, previously introducing CNG in 2021, LNG in 2022, and now focusing on electric trucks.
