Sustainable fleet growing further


US class I railway Union Pacific is investing in electric vehicles: Over the next six months, 67 electric vehicles – 50 Ford Lightning pickups and 17 Ford Mustang Mach-Es – will be delivered to select field locations across the railroad’s US network.

 

Growing its zero-emission vehicle fleet helps move Union Pacific closer to one of its climate action plan goals: to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 26% by 2030 from a 2018 baseline, on a path to net zero emissions by 2050.

 

UP began adding electric vehicles to its fleet in 2020 with eight Chevrolet Bolts. The vehicles were primarily used for customer site visits and administrative purposes. Over the next year, UP will also install charging stations in seven locations in USA. (ben)
