GreenLine flags off LNG truck fleet for Bekaert
Each GreenLine LNG truck is expected to reduce up to 24 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually.
GreenLine Mobility Solutions, an Essar venture and India’s only green logistics operator of LNG and electric-powered heavy commercial trucks, has partnered with Bekaert, a global leader in tire reinforcement technology, to decarbonise road logistics.
"The partnership was flagged off with the deployment of GreenLine’s LNG-powered trucks at Bekaert’s Ranjangaon plant, marking the beginning of a pilot phase that aims to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of Bekaert’s logistics operations," says an official release from GreenLine.
Each GreenLine LNG truck is expected to reduce up to 24 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually, contributing to Bekaert’s ambition of becoming carbon net-zero by 2050 and achieving 65 percent of sales from sustainable solutions, the release added.
"Our partnership with Bekaert demonstrates the growing commitment of forward-thinking corporates to drive sustainability at scale," says Anand Mimani, CEO, GreenLine Mobility Solutions. "At GreenLine, we are proud to offer not just green trucks but an integrated ecosystem — from LNG refuelling to real-time telematics — that empowers our partners to make meaningful progress on their net-zero goals."
Dinesh Mukhedkar, Procurement Operations Lead - South Asia and Procurement Global Shared Service Centre Lead, Bekaert adds: "As part of our purpose of 'Establishing the new possible,’ and our ambition to lead in safe, smart and sustainable solutions, decarbonising logistics is an essential step. This directly supports our commitment to ESG principles and long-term sustainability goals."
GreenLine’s expanding fleet of LNG-powered trucks has already clocked more than 40 million kilometres, avoiding over 10,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions. The company’s ongoing expansion includes plans to deploy over 10,000 LNG and EV trucks, supported by a nationwide network of 100 LNG refuelling stations, EV charging hubs, and battery swapping facilities — targeting a reduction of one million tonnes of carbon emissions annually, the release added.
