Our road to a greener future
The entire delivery fleet will be electrified by 2030 and the line haul fleet by 2035. All our depots already obtain electricity from 100 % renewable energies today.
World record with our e-truck
DPD Switzerland, together with partners Continental and Futuricum, set the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title in 2021 for the longest distance driven by an e-truck without intermediate charging. The electric truck was the highest capacity in Europe and covered a total of 1'099 kilometres in 23 hours!

Our e-truck fleet is constantly expanding. Several e-trucks of the brand Futuricum of the type Logistics 18E are on the roads, which were developed by Designwerk Products AG on the basis of a vehicle from Volvo. The e-trucks are equipped with the largest batteries available in Europe with a storage capacity of 900 kilowatts and have a range of up to 760 km per battery charge. The e-trucks are charged exclusively with Swiss green electricity. One e-truck saves about 72 tonnes of CO2 per year.
Green Strategy
What is the Green Strategy? The goal is to achieve emission-free parcel delivery in at least ten Swiss cities by 2025 and to fill 30% of our entire fleet with electric vehicles. In order to contribute more and more to climate protection and to do something ourselves, we would like to work with our partners to equip our depots with solar energy and to use renewable solar energy locally as fuel for our delivery vans and e-trucks.

Predict – the innovative delivery solution
Predict – the innovative delivery solution
Our delivery solution Predict lowers the number of unsuccessful delivery attempts and cuts both resources and CO2-emissions. With Predict, recipients can activate parcel delivery notifications by e-mail or SMS and enter a one-hour time window. Recipients can track parcels that are out for delivery in real time and can choose from a range of alternative delivery options up to 15 minutes before the parcel is delivered. This means that recipients have the freedom to receive parcels exactly where and when they like. We can use Predict to optimise our routes, improve our first-time delivery rate and cut our CO2-emissions.
A transition to rails to save up to ten truck journeys
We have transitioned our tyre transport from the road to rails and are now saving up to ten truck journeys and around 1.2 tonnes of CO2 per night. We are currently examining all of our line operations for potential transitions to relieve even more pressure on the road network and lower our CO2-emissions even further.
