Dalmia Cement, Tejas Cargo India Limited and Blue Energy Motors have joined hands to deploy a Blue Energy Motors electric heavy-duty truck for cement transportation operations in Rajgangpur, marking another step towards the adoption of cleaner freight mobility in India’s industrial sector. Operated by Tejas Cargo India Limited, the electric truck will support Dalmia Cement’s logistics requirements. The deployment highlights the growing focus among industrial companies and logistics operators on reducing transportation-related emissions and developing more sustainable and efficient supply chains.

Freight transportation is increasingly being recognised as an important area for addressing Scope 3 emissions, as companies expand their sustainability efforts beyond manufacturing and operational activities. The collaboration brings together a cement manufacturer, logistics provider and electric commercial vehicle manufacturer to demonstrate the application of electric heavy-duty transportation in a real-world industrial environment.

The deployment also adds to the growing use of electric heavy-duty trucks in India’s core industries, demonstrating the potential for cleaner mobility solutions in applications linked to cement, infrastructure and other high-volume freight operations. As industrial supply chains become more focused on reducing their environmental impact, electric freight vehicles can support businesses in addressing transportation-related emissions while maintaining commercial logistics operations.

Chander Bindal, Chairman & Managing Director, Tejas Cargo India Limited, said, “The logistics sector is undergoing a significant transformation, and sustainable transportation will play a defining role in its future. We are pleased to deploy Blue Energy Motors’ electric heavy-duty truck for Dalmia Cement’s operations and look forward to contributing to the adoption of cleaner and more efficient freight solutions across the industry.”

Anand Mimani, CEO – EV & New Energy Business, Blue Energy Motors, said, “As India accelerates its transition towards a lower-carbon future, decarbonizing freight transportation will be critical to achieving meaningful emissions reductions. Electric heavy-duty trucks are increasingly proving their ability to deliver the performance, reliability and economics required for commercial operations. This deployment is a strong example of how clean mobility solutions can help industries reduce transportation-related emissions while advancing their broader sustainability ambitions.”

Blue Energy Motors, which describes itself as India’s No. 1 Green Truck Brand, is developing its portfolio of electric and LNG heavy-duty trucks to support the transition towards sustainable freight mobility. The company currently has more than 1,400 green heavy-duty trucks operating across key freight corridors in India. According to the company, these vehicles have collectively covered more than 122 million green kilometres and helped reduce more than 33,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions, equivalent to the carbon absorption of nearly 1.3 million trees.

Blue Energy Motors combines next-generation truck technology with energy-as-a-service and maintenance support. The company works with strategic partners and suppliers to develop an ecosystem aimed at making clean commercial transportation scalable and economically viable. The Rajgangpur deployment demonstrates the increasing role of electric heavy-duty vehicles in industrial logistics and supports broader efforts to build lower-carbon, more efficient and future-ready freight supply chains in India.
