Vehicle fleet at Glen Dimplex Deutschland: Starting signal for electromobility.

3 min read
Sustainability considerations are incorporated into selected business processes, products and corporate initiatives in the Kulmbach-based company Glen Dimplex Deutschland. Now Glen Dimplex is also focusing on environmental and climate protection in the area of mobility expanding the use of electric vehicles within its company fleet.. The vehicle fleet is to be successively converted to vehicles with electric drive systems.

A Skoda Enyaq heralds the turn of the era and during operation, the vehicle does not require fossil fuels. What's more, the electrical energy used to power the vehicle also comes from renewable sources. The company's four charging columns in front of the Glen Dimplex Forum draw their power from one of the photovoltaic systems installed on the roofs of the company's buildings.

“We are thus taking another consistent step toward aligning our company with changing regulatory, environmental and market requirements.”

Employees' company cars can now also be converted to electric mobility - at better conditions than for combustion cars. Employees also have the opportunity to test the electric car for an initial period of ten days.

"We will continue to invest in electromobility in the future and thus gradually convert our vehicle fleet," Heiko Martin continues.

Glen Dimplex Deutschland provides technologies that can contribute to reducing energy consumption, depending on the application and supports efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through technological solutions. With heating, cooling and ventilation applications GDD provides soltuions with the potential to improve energy efficiency, depending on system design and operating conditions.

“We also work every day to focus even more consistently on the sustainability of our entire process chain, from supply to recycling at the end of a product's life.”

Glen Dimplex Deutschland, for example, has also switched the company's energy supply to electricity sourced from certified renewable energy sources.

"Even seemingly small activities such as a company-owned bee colony or a new bicycle parking lot including charging facilities for e-bikes pay into the account of company pursuing defined sustainability measures," emphasizes CEO Clemens Dereschkewitz.
