\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDHL Express is the first company to order 12 all-electric eCargo Alice aircraft from Eviation, a global manufacturer of all-electric aircraft based in Seattle, USA.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nDHL says it wants to establish an “unrivalled Express electric network and take a pioneering step towards a sustainable future in aviation”<\/strong>. Eviation plans to deliver the Alice electric aircraft to DHL Express in 2024.\r\n\r\n“We firmly believe in a future with zero-emission logistics,”<\/strong> says John Pearson, CEO of DHL Express. “That’s why our investments are always aimed at improving our carbon footprint.”<\/strong> “On the road to clean logistics operations, the electrification of every mode of transport plays a crucial role and will contribute significantly to our overall sustainability goal of zero emissions,”<\/strong> he adds.\r\n\r\nAlice can be piloted by a single pilot and carry 1,200kg<\/strong>. It will require 30 minutes or less to charge per hour of flight and will have a maximum range of up to 815 kilometres<\/strong> (440 nautical miles). Alice will operate in all the environments currently served by piston and turbine aeroplanes. Its advanced electric motors<\/strong> have fewer moving parts to increase reliability and reduce maintenance costs<\/strong>. Operational software constantly monitors flight performance to ensure efficiency<\/strong>.\r\n\r\nAccording to DHL Express, the aircraft is ideal for refuelling routes and requires less investment in station infrastructure<\/strong>. Alice can be charging during loading and unloading<\/strong> operations, ensuring fast delivery times that maintain DHL Express’ tight schedules<\/strong>.\r\n\r\nEviation’s CEO says that “From day one, we set ourselves the audacious goal of transforming the aviation industry and creating a new era with electric aeroplanes” and that “partnering with companies like DHL, who are leaders in sustainable freight transport<\/strong>, is proof that the electric age is coming. This announcement is a significant milestone in our mission to transform the future of flying around the world,” adds Omer Bar-Yohay.\r\n\r\nThe decarbonisation of operations is one of the main pillars of the DPDHL Group’s new Sustainability roadmap, announced in the first quarter of 2021. The Group is investing a total of 7 billion euros by 2030 in measures to reduce its CO2 emissions<\/strong>. The funds will go in particular to the electrification of the last-mile delivery fleet, sustainable aviation fuels and climate-neutral buildings.<\/strong>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
