Paradeep Parivahan Deploys 45 Electric Heavy-Duty Trucks For UltraTech Cement
Paradeep Parivahan (PPL), in partnership with Energy In Motion (EIM), has commenced the deployment of approximately 45 EIM Ashwa 4x2, 55-tonne electric heavy-duty tractor trailers for UltraTech Cement Limited, the world's largest cement company outside China.

Operations To Span Three States
The operational corridor will cover Rajasthan, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, with an average transportation distance of approximately 250 kilometres. The deployment is expected to demonstrate the commercial viability of electric heavy-duty vehicles for long-distance Logistics operations.
The project combines electric truck technology, battery-swapping infrastructure and logistics expertise to support large-scale freight transportation while maintaining competitive operating costs compared with conventional diesel vehicles.
Environmental Benefits Of The Project
The company stated that the fleet is expected to reduce more than 8,900 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually while replacing nearly 2.9 million litres of diesel consumption every year. The initiative is aligned with India's sustainability goals, carbon reduction objectives and efforts to promote cleaner logistics operations.
The deployment also highlights increasing adoption of electric mobility solutions in the commercial transportation segment and showcases how integrated vehicle and energy infrastructure can facilitate large-scale decarbonisation of freight transportation.
