ESB switch to an electric Nissan fleet

In November 2019 , ESB Networks announced it has begun decarbonising its yellow van fleet, with the purchase of 70 full electric vehicles .

The Nissan ENV200s will be added to the fleet throughout 2019 and 2020. It is estimated 170 tonnes of carbon will be offset annually by phasing out diesel in ESB Networks’ small van fleet.

Richard Bruton, Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment, welcomed the move.

“The Climate Action Plan commits to a really significant step up in electric vehicle use,” he said.

“Our public sector must lead by example if we are to persuade the rest of society to make the changes required.
