Posti and Plugit move together toward more sustainable logistics – “You drive, we charge”

2.6.2024

We work closely with Plugit to promote more responsible logistics. We transport Plugit’s charging devices fossil-free with our Green Freight additional service, and Plugit supports us in building a charging network across Finland.

Sustainable logistics

Plugit Finland is a leading provider of charging solutions for electric vehicles, helping its customers transition to zero-emission mobility. All energy Posti charges through Plugit is 100% renewable.

Our cooperation in transport began in spring 2023, when Plugit identified development needs for its project-based, tightly scheduled deliveries. We helped improve cost-efficiency and reduce warehouse load by spreading deliveries throughout the week.

We support Plugit comprehensively in logistics: we deliver most charging devices as freight, equipment and spare parts as parcels, and charging tags as letters. We took a major step in April by moving all Plugit’s freight deliveries to our fossil-free Green Freight service.

“We’ve been very satisfied with the cooperation. Posti takes an active approach and makes things work. For us, quality in deliveries is crucial, and delivery reliability has been excellent,” says Markus Vierula, Value Stream Manager Logistics & Configuration at Plugit.

Fossil-free freight and nationwide charging network development

Our Green Freight service offers Plugit fossil-free freight deliveries throughout Finland. It helps reduce emissions from deliveries, which make up a significant share of the company’s total emissions.

Plugit is also an important partner for Posti in building the charging network. Plugit designs terminal-specific solutions for us, and we use Plugit’s public charging stations in Tampere’s Viinikka and Pyynikintori.

Our cooperation in numbers:

  • 99%: Posti’s delivery reliability for Plugit’s shipments.

  • 8.8 tonnes: CO₂e emissions (tank-to-wheel) from six months of freight deliveries, dropping to zero when Plugit switches to our Green Freight service.

  • 325: Plugit charging sockets in Posti’s use.

  • 70,000: Posti’s annual charging sessions.

Shared goals drive us toward fossil-free mobility

Logistics is one of the world’s most polluting industries. We share the same challenge and ambitious sustainability goals with Plugit. Posti aims to operate fossil-free by 2030 and reach net-zero emissions by 2040. Plugit targets net-zero by 2050 or earlier, and fossil-free in its own fleet by 2026.

“We’re on a shared sustainability journey and help each other. For us at Plugit, sustainability means enabling fossil-free transport for operators like Posti. You drive, we charge,” says Jaana Sampolahti, ESG Manager at Plugit.

“Developing charging and fueling infrastructure quickly accelerates the green transition in logistics. Plugit is a key partner for us on the road to fossil-free professional transport,” says Anna Heino, Posti’s Climate and Nature Director.
