Energy In Motion and Paradeep Parivahan Ltd deploys Electric Heavy Duty vehicles for UltraTech Cement

Energy In Motion (EIM) and Paradeep Parivahan Limited (PPL) have commenced the deployment of approximately 45 EIM Ashwa 4x2, 55-tonne electric heavy-duty vehicles for UltraTech Cement Limited, the world's largest cement company outside China.

The fleet will be deployed for the transportation of clinker from UltraTech's integrated manufacturing unit in Rajasthan to its grinding units in the Delhi-NCR region. This initiative marks one of the largest deployments of electric heavy-duty trucks in the cement sector in Northern India and represents a significant milestone in India's transition towards zero-emission long-haul freight transportation.

The operational corridor spans three states; Rajasthan, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh with an average lead distance of approximately 250 kilometers. The deployment demonstrates the growing commercial viability of electric heavy-duty vehicles for demanding long-distance logistics operations.

This landmark deployment highlights the impact of collaboration between industry leaders, logistics service providers, and technology innovators in advancing sustainable freight mobility. It serves as a strong example of how integrated vehicle and energy infrastructure solutions can enable large-scale decarbonization of commercial transportation at competitive cost.

The environmental benefits of the project are expected to be significant. The fleet is projected to reduce over 8,900 tons of CO2 emissions annually, displacing an equivalent of about 2.9 million liters of diesel per year. The initiative is expected to contribute meaningfully to cleaner logistics operations while supporting national sustainability, import substitution and carbon reduction objectives.

By combining advanced electric truck technology, battery-swapping infrastructure, and operational expertise, EIM and Paradeep Parivahan are setting a new benchmark for sustainable heavy-duty electric transportation in India with a competitive total cost of operation compared to diesel trucking and accelerating the adoption of zero-emission freight solutions at scale.

Narendra Murkumbi, co-founder and Managing Director of Energy In Motion Ltd., said : "EIM is delighted to launch long-haul highway operations in the NCR region with Paradeep Parivahan as our lead customer who in turn will serve UltraTech Cement Limited, the sector leader driving the industry's transition towards a cleaner, zero-emission future. Under our Maitryi model, EIM offers battery packs and charging/swapping services as a package allowing our experienced Logistics Service Partners to focus on fleet management and customer service. Our business model democratizes heavy electric transport by reducing upfront cost about 40% per vehicle and building common heavy-duty charging / battery swapping infrastructure on key routes.

The NCR region is a focus area for EIM due to the national priority of reducing pollution around our nation's capital city and the high awareness and willingness of the local heavy industry and fleet operators to switch to zero emission solutions."

Dr. Khalid Khan, CMD & CEO, Paradeep Parivahan Limited said: "This project represents a defining moment for India's logistics industry. For the first time, electric heavy-duty trucks are being deployed at meaningful scale on a long-haul, high-utilization industrial corridor spanning multiple states. As a logistics partner, our responsibility extends beyond moving cargo-we must help shape the future of sustainable transportation. Through this collaboration with Energy In Motion and UltraTech Cement Limited, we are proving that large-scale freight decarbonization is not a vision for the future; it is happening today. We believe this deployment will serve as a benchmark for the industry and accelerate the adoption of zero-emission freight mobility across India."
