Commitment to achieving zero emissions

We're the pioneering group among global delivery companies when it comes to adopting science-based climate-change reduction targets (SBTi). This initiative aims to align our efforts with scientific consensus, limiting global warming to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels, as outlined in the Paris Agreement.

At the level of the Geopost group, we've set an ambitious target of achieving net-zero emissions by 2040, signifying our enduring commitment. By 2030, we aim to slash CO2 emissions by 43%, and by 2040, by 90%. The remainder will be offset through investments in environmentally beneficial projects.

To realize this objective, we've outlined four key areas for emissions reduction: electrification of our own and service fleets, adoption of alternative fuels, and integration of renewable energy sources.

Priorities

Climate change

  • We aim to implement proactive and systematic measures that significantly contribute to mitigating climate change.

    We will consistently conduct inventories and monitor greenhouse gases across Scopes 1, 2, and 3, ensuring that by 2040 our net Scope 1 and 2 emissions reach zero.

Transport pollution

We will consistently monitor and mitigate transportation emissions, progressively increasing the proportion of electrified vehicles in our fleet. Through the modernization of our older fleet, we aim to ensure compliance with EURO6 standards. Furthermore, we will actively explore the expansion of alternative fuel options, including hydrogen and the integration of biofuels.

Electric fleet

DPD now delivers shipments using electric vehicles in five cities across Lithuania. In 2024, our fleet boasts 72 electric vehicles, bringing more sustainable transportation to Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipėda, Šiauliai, and Panevėžys. This transition is projected to reduce environmental pollution by approximately 330 tons annually compared to previous years.

Electric Fleet in Vilnius

  • Since October 2021, 60 electric vehicles have been cruising the streets of Vilnius, replacing our diesel fleet in the capital with an electric one.
  • We have installed a total of 62 charging stations for electric vehicles at the parcel distribution terminal in Vilnius.
  • Together with our partners, we have invested approximately 2 million euros in environmentally friendly transportation vehicles and charging stations.
  • The decision to invest in electric vehicles reflects DPD Lietuva's commitment to fostering environmentally friendly business practices. Therefore, residents of Vilnius who prioritize the planet's future can now receive parcels while being environmentally conscious.
  • Each year, approximately 270 tonnes less CO2 are emitted thanks to electric vehicles.
  • The project received support from the "Climate Change Programmes Funds" coordinated by the Environmental Projects Management Agency under the Ministry of Environment.

Air quality monitoring

Residents of the capital can observe in real-time which parts of Vilnius boast the cleanest air and which ones should be cause for residents’ concern. Last October, we began implementing innovative air quality measurement technology in the city of Vilnius. Many DPD electric vehicles are equipped with built-in air quality sensors, providing real-time data.

More than 330 lockers

Parcel lockers - a more environmentally friendly way to deliver packages. Delivering packages to parcel lockers emits less CO2 compared to door-to-door delivery. During a single trip, the courier can deliver more packages to one location, which means fewer trips and stops overall. This reduces the total number of kilometers driven, fuel consumption, and consequently carbon dioxide emissions.

We participate in the "Save the Baltic sea" initiative

DPD Lietuva has joined the "Save the Baltic Sea" project and become part of a historic expedition. The initiative entails a 9-month journey to raise awareness about the issue of pollution in the Baltic Sea. Throughout the project, we are ensuring that expedition participants are equipped with the necessary gear and can contribute successfully to this important initiative.
