Detailed description (English): As part of its commitment to be climate positive in 2030, IKEA aims to shift to 100% zero emissions last mile deliveries in 2025.
In Spain more than 30% of our sales include home delivery service. We do an average of 6.500 deliveries per day. Using fossil fuel-based vehicles increases the carbon emissions but also raises air pollution. It is our responsibility, but also a huge opportunity to make a positive impact in the communities where we are operating.
Started in March 2020, we added 8 electric vans in Madrid, which was delivering around the 2% of the national deliveries. Based on that experience and jointly in collaboration with our transport service partners, we have increased the number of electric vans progressively, reaching 18% of deliveries by electric vans at the end of August 2022.
We are also planning to develop a grid of EV chargers in our own facilities to make this transition easier and enable us to achieve our goal of 100%.
