Key targets

Highlights

We have made strong progress in 2024/25. Fundamental ESG principles – to reduce our impact on the planet, promote equality and fairness, and increase transparency around our operation – are now embedded in our business model, management objectives and company culture as we deliver for all stakeholders. Responsible delivery remains fundamental to our strategy and reflects our core values of ‘doing the right thing’ and ‘delivering for customers’.

Carbon data

Using the latest technology, we’re continually measuring and reviewing our carbon emissions. We categorise these into three ‘Scopes’ – a method developed by the most widely used global accounting tool, the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. Scopes 1 and 2 cover direct and indirect emissions resulting from business operations, while Scope 3 includes all other indirect emissions that are part of our value chain but lie outside standard operations. By our calculations, the total CO2e per parcel is currently 346g CO2e.

Fleet

We have continued to add to our low-carbon first-mile fleet. 207 Biomethane Compressed Natural Gas (Bio-CNG) tractor units are now in service, bringing the total to more than 50% of our core tractor unit fleet. Each Bio-CNG unit reduces CO2 emissions by up to 90% when compared to an equivalent diesel vehicle. Other bio-CNG benefits include reductions in air pollution impact, such as less NOX, less particulate matter, and they’re also 50% quieter than diesel equivalents.

Alternative fuel exploration is ongoing, and we use HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) fuel as standard at our Brooklands depot, which reduces emissions ~80% when compared to an equivalent diesel vehicle. In 2024/25 continued to grow our electric van fleet with EVs accounting for over 50% of our core van fleet.

We have updated our company car policy so that all new cars must be hybrid or electric, and to support this transition for colleagues, we have invested in further and upgraded charge points at our Rugby hub.

Buildings

Our infrastructure of hubs, depots and delivery units is a key part of our overall roadmap to become a low-carbon delivery business. We have already converted 100% of our purchased electricity to REGO-backed (renewable energy guarantee of origin) UK renewables in our whole operation.

Our flagship 55-acre ‘superhub’ at Barnsley, which opened in 2022, includes solar panels, rain harvesting and acoustic bunds to help reduce noise pollution. There’s also a substantial biodiversity area to support local wildlife, and we’ve planted more than 25,000 new trees and hedgerows.

This builds on other energy-saving features we’ve already got in place elsewhere in our network. For example, our Rugby hub features transparent roof sections to increase natural lighting and LED lighting throughout to save energy.
