Major companies on track for fully electric fleets by 2030

By / 2 days ago / News / No Comments

Corporate giants including AstraZeneca, Aviva, Barclays, Capgemini, Costain, Deloitte and Mitie are forging ahead with ambitious plans to operate zero-emission fleets by 2030.

Nearly 70% of companies said they were able to sustain progress towards a 100% EV goal by 2030

The firms are among the members of Climate Group’s EV100 network that already have electrified more than 50% of their fleets and advanced their plans with steady momentum over the last 12 months.

The network’s Progress and Insights Report for 2025 found nearly 70% of companies said they were able to sustain progress towards a 100% EV goal by 2030, the EV100 deadline – despite challenging conditions.

Collectively, members added more than 127,000 EVs to their fleets over the last year. This brings the total number of EVs deployed by the network to over 700,000 across 76 markets.

Members continue to drive their plans by installing critical charging infrastructure to support the EV transition. They’ve now provided charging access to staff and customers in 4,277 locations globally.

The network increased the spread of their commitments to cover 130 markets. Members have committed to deploy EVs in 13 additional markets this year, including Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Kenya, Iran, Mali and Uzbekistan.

Dominic Phinn, head of transport at Climate Group, said EV100 members continue to lead the charge towards a cleaner, healthier transport future but added that operating conditions to support their ambitions also need to be put in place – and fast.

“Policymakers worldwide must urgently step up their efforts to create the conditions needed to speed up the transition. This includes significantly expanding charging and grid infrastructure, establishing clear legislative frameworks that provide businesses with certainty and confidence, and launching public campaigns to build widespread support and understanding.”

Firms at the forefront of change include Mitie, which boasts one of the UK’s largest electric fleets – now at more than 6,000 EVs.

Chris Cubberley, head of fleet at Mitie, said: “Whilst we have come a long way, the journey is far from over and we’re excited to continue finding innovative ways to transition the rest of our fleet to electric. Tapping into EV100 as a platform for organisations to learn from each other in the shared pursuit of a greener future has supported these transition efforts.”

Aviva is also working to transition its fleet to electric or plug-in-hybrid vehicles in the UK and Ireland by the end of 2025, significantly reducing its carbon footprint and reinforcing its dedication to environmental responsibility and innovation.

The report features a series of case studies on how companies are finding innovative solutions to challenges in the EV transition. This includes EV100+ member Prologis, a global logistics real estate company, which created a self-sufficient microgrid to power North America’s largest heavy-duty electric vehicle charging hub, the Denker project.

Henrik Holland, global head, Prologis Mobility, said: “We are tackling real-world challenges to help our customers get their electric fleets on the road faster. For the Denker project, waiting years for a power upgrade wasn’t an option. In less than a year, we delivered an industry-first solution to energize the trucks and get them on the road. At Prologis Mobility, we aim to make the shift to zero-emissions transportation seamless while driving economic efficiency for our customers.”

The EV100 report, Turning Commitment into Action: How Ambitious Fleets are Driving the Global EV Transition, goes live today (31 March) from 3pm BST.
