Australian Retailer Woolworths To Make All Its Home Delivery Trucks 100% Electric By 2030
, which is not related to South Africa’s Woolworths, has announced that it aims to make all its home delivery trucks 100% electric-powered by 2030, which will see more than 1,000 EVs added to the nation’s roads. It will be the first Australian supermarket chain to do so. Woolworths Group has kickstarted the transition by welcoming the first of 27 new EVs, which will begin delivering groceries to Woolworths’ Sydney customers over the next two months.
“The case for a low carbon future has never been clearer and we’re backing a better tomorrow for our communities and the planet by starting the transition now. All 27 of the new home delivery EVs will be based in Sydney, delivering groceries to customers across the CBD, Inner West, Sutherland Shire, St George region, and Eastern Suburbs. At present, public EV infrastructure to support commercial fleets remains limited. The trucks will operate out of Woolworths’ Customer Fulfilment Centres in Mascot and Caringbah, which are dedicated to picking and packing the supermarket’s online orders.
