Dairygold adds electric truck to fleet in Irish first

The electric truck will make daily deliveries and collections from Dairygold's Castlefarm Dairy Processing Complex in Mitchelstown, Co Cork as well as Milk Supplier’s farms.The installation of a charging system on the Castlefarm site enables a full charging of the truck within two-and-a-half hours.

The electric milk lorry is part of Dairygold's broader emissions reduction programme, Head of Sustainability Orlaith Tynan said. "The introduction of Ireland's first electric milk truck represents a significant milestone, in not only Dairygold’s ongoing commitment to sustainability, but also the agriculture sector as a whole.

"The introduction of our electric truck is an important part of our corporate emissions reduction programme, extending from the great work being done by our farmers, our milk collection partners and our processing operations." Speaking at the launch of the new electric milk truck, Dairygold Interim Chief Executive Michael Harte said:"We are very proud to be the first dairy processor in Ireland to introduce an electric milk truck to our fleet."The electric truck will reduce Dairygold's greenhouse gas emissions and help us on our journey to achieve our 2030 carbon reduction targets.
