Lazer Logistics’ 1M miles, moves underlines sustainability of EVs

ALPHARETTA, GEORGIA, January 11, 2024 — Lazer Logistics, Inc., (“Lazer Logistics”) the leading provider of outsourced, end-to-end yard management services in North America, is proud to announce a significant sustainability milestone achieved through its industry leading Electric Vehicle (EV) Spotter Program: surpassing ONE MILLION zero-emission MILES and MOVES. This groundbreaking achievement is a testament to the company’s commitment to sustainability and innovation, marking nearly seven years of diligent efforts to lead the industry toward a greener future.

Lazer Logistics’ First Million Zero-Emission Miles and Moves by the numbers:

Carbon Footprint Reduction

Over 13 million pounds of CO2 emissions have been prevented, providing a significant positive impact on global greenhouse gas reduction efforts.

Operational Efficiency

Lazer’s EVs have accumulated more than 400,000 hours of key-on time, demonstrating not only environmental benefits but also the reliability and efficiency of our fleet.

Energy Savings

Lazer’s EV program has saved over 600,000 gallons of diesel, showcasing the economic and environmental advantages of transitioning to electric vehicles.

The Lazer Logistics EV program milestone is equivalent to:
• The removal of 1,300 cars from the road.
• The avoidance of burning 6.6 million pounds of coal.
• The growth of over 100,000 tree seedlings for a decade.
• The energy equivalent of powering 7,500 homes annually.

Healthier Communities

There have been significant reductions in criteria air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM2.5), and carbon monoxide (CO), leading to cleaner and healthier air quality for Lazer’s employees, clients, and communities they serve.

“This exciting milestone reflects our steadfast commitment to reducing our carbon footprint while assisting our clients with their sustainability goals. We are thrilled to continue the expansion of our zero-emission fleet and look forward to continuing to lead our industry in sustainable yard management solutions”, said Adam Newsome, CEO of Lazer Logistics. “Lazer Logistics remains steadfast in its mission to spearhead sustainable transportation solutions. These achievements reflect our commitment to environmental stewardship and corporate responsibility, paving the way for a cleaner, greener future.”

“Our turnkey, zero tailpipe emission EV solution is unparalleled in the yard management industry, and we could not be prouder of this accomplishment. This milestone is proof positive of our long-standing commitment to responsible business. We thank our forward-thinking, sustainability-oriented clients without whom this milestone would not be possible”, said Chris Bennett, EV Director.
