There is wonderful news for the future of connectivity and the environment in the UK! Virgin Media O2 has announced a fantastic step forward in their journey towards a greener tomorrow. As part of their ambitious target to transition to a fully Electric Vehicle (EV) fleet by 2030, the company has proudly added 101 brand new Renault Master e-Tech vans to their collection. This exciting move brings them closer to their goal of operating a fleet of approximately 4,300 electric vehicles, showcasing a real commitment to sustainability.
These new vans are not just eco-friendly; they are perfectly designed to support the hardworking telecoms engineers who keep our homes and businesses connected. The Renault Master e-Tech boasts an impressive range of up to 285 miles on a single charge, ensuring that engineers can travel confidently across the country. Furthermore, the vehicles feature a powerful 105kW electric motor and an 87kWh battery, with DC fast charging capabilities that can restore up to 142 miles of range in just 30 minutes. This means less time waiting and more time getting the job done!
The new vans have been thoughtfully selected in the L2H2 configuration, offering a perfect blend of load-carrying capability and easy manoeuvrability. This design provides excellent rear headroom for engineers to work comfortably while allowing them to navigate tight city streets and access harder-to-reach urban locations with ease. Each van is expected to cover an average of 13,000 miles per year over a planned five-year operating cycle, making them a reliable and efficient choice for daily operations.
Beyond this specific fleet update, Virgin Media O2 is working towards an even bigger vision: achieving Net Zero Carbon across their operations, products, and supply chain by 2040. This is a remarkable ten years ahead of the UK's national goal, demonstrating a proactive and positive approach to environmental stewardship. By choosing these advanced electric vehicles, the company is proving that high-quality service and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.
