What the project investment will enable
By supporting large manufacturing, industrial and logistics companies to switch to new electric forklift trucks, this investment will reduce diesel use by 52,560 litres per truck per year, and each truck will reduce CO2 emissions by an estimated 117 tonnes annually. When Bisedge investigated how much diesel their customers' old forklifts were using, they found that they used 5-7 litres an hour.
Bisedge offer full service of material handling equipment to their customers for affordable monthly fees, on long-term contracts. This enables companies to modernise their fleets with electric forklifts and other clean energy logistics solutions without the high up-front costs which they might otherwise face. Bisedge's customers are large companies with 24/7 logistics operations, so the carbon savings from switching to electric forklifts are substantial.
Bisedge have a particular focus on getting more women working in the male-dominated logistics sector in Nigeria. They provide training and actively promote gender equality in the industry, estimating that for each forklift lease, 4 jobs are created.
