The Irish branch of the courier service DPD has reached the milestone of 1 million-zero emission deliveries, with Tanaiste Leo Varadkar accepting the millionth package.
The Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment congratulated the company on the landmark.
DPD Ireland has said they are currently delivering more than 4,000 parcels every day by electric vehicles. The parcel-service has also begun tests using hydrotreated vegetable oil in vehicles rather than using diesel.
