Gillinge + Electric cars = TRUE
Gillinge's sustainability work
Electric cars since 2017
In 2017, we replaced all our fossil fuel-powered training cars with electric cars as part of our efforts to promote a more sustainable environment. The new cars are powered by energy from the sun, wind and water, and will contribute to a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. We want to help Sweden achieve its ambitious environmental targets for 2030 and 2045!
Environmental initiatives
Environmental thinking permeates our entire organization. For example, we have ensured that our risk education students can travel publicly and climate-smart with direct buses from Uppsala – all the way to our gates!
Our students are the drivers of tomorrow and we want to help create a positive encounter with new technology – which in the long run can give future drivers good reasons to choose electric cars.
As the country’s largest traffic training center, it is important for us to be able to offer training to reduce emissions and create sustainable development. We have further training in economical and defensive driving, which is about increasing the driver’s awareness of consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. It’s not just individual drivers who are affected – entire companies, organizations and authorities can benefit from an active approach to sustainable development. Fuel costs and work environment are two of many areas that can be positively affected by participation in our training programs.
We are now looking for the next generation of electric car partners. Contact us at Gillinge if you want to become our new supplier of electric cars!
