TranspoTech Purchases More Than 400 Electric Equipment

TranspoTech, in addition to electric cars, already boasts more than 80% of its forklift fleet allocated to clients in the electric model. Just this year, the company invested in more than 400 electric and 100% sustainable equipment from the brand Still, the sector leader in the country.

The electric cars have a range of 300 km and will be recharged within TranspoTech itself, which has photovoltaic solar power plants in Blumenau (SC), Nova Santa Rita (RS), and Curitiba (PR).

Together, the plants reduce emissions by 79 tons of carbon per year, which offsets, for example, 2.1 thousand trees planted or a distance of 514 thousand kilometers by a conventional vehicle.
