Reduce emissions across your logistics network with Maritime ZERO, integrating eHGVs, UK-wide charging, and rail-connected operations.

Reducing supply chain emissions requires infrastructure on a national scale, built to support low-carbon and zero-emission transport in real-world operations. Maritime ZERO provides that capability, bringing eHGVs into your logistics network together with high-powered charging at our depots and rail-connected terminals nationwide.
Third-party charging access at selected sites for approved partners

Average range of 300-500km per charge, suited to regional and first/final-mile movements

eHGVs available for dedicated contracts with consistent route profiles
Integrated with rail to reduce road mileage and overall emissions

100% renewable electricity supply across all charging sites
eHGVs from leading manufacturers: DAF, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Renault, and Scania

National charging network at strategic depots and rail-connected sites

GLEC-aligned carbon measurement and reporting for transparent emissions data

Maritime ZERO combines national road and rail capability with the infrastructure and operating model required to deliver zero-emission road transport as a practical, commercial logistics solution.

Maritime ZERO operates eHGVs across live intermodal and distribution routes, capturing real-world data on range, charging cycles, and performance to demonstrate commercial viability in day-to-day logistics operations.
Our hub-and-spoke model uses rail for long-distance movements and eHGVs for first and final miles, reducing diesel journeys, cutting emissions, and maintaining reliable end-to-end service performance.
Maritime ZERO applies the right solution in the right place, combining eHGVs, rail, HVO, and smarter route planning to reduce emissions where each delivers the greatest operational and commercial value.
Our independent charging network powers the deployment of eHGVs across live logistics operations, providing capacity for over 200 vehicles and up to 1MW per charger.
Delivered through Maritime Transport’s already-established road, rail, and terminal operations, Maritime ZERO operates within a proven national logistics network, allowing zero-emission transport to run alongside existing supply chains.
Through participation in industry and government-backed schemes, Maritime ZERO works closely with public and private sector partners to inform future zero-emission freight policy, investment, and infrastructure development.
Maritime ZERO is involved in a number of national projects and funding-backed initiatives accelerating the transition to zero-emission road freight, including:
Through these programmes, we’re deploying eHGVs nationally, expanding depot charging infrastructure, and contributing operational insight into charging demand and grid requirements. We are also working with Freeport partners on grant-funded infrastructure projects, including commercial vehicle charging and other decarbonisation initiatives.
Maritime ZERO is our dedicated division for zero-emission road transport, combining eHGVs with one of the UK’s largest independent charging networks. Integrated with our rail freight operations, Maritime ZERO supports the transition to a cleaner, more sustainable UK supply chain by reducing emissions where electric operations are commercially and operationally viable. The division continues to expand its national charging and operational footprint, strengthening our wider sustainability strategy and providing a practical pathway to lower-carbon logistics.
Yes, in most cases. eHGVs move the same containers and trailers as diesel trucks, and there are almost no restrictions linked to the type of cargo being carried unless it is classed as ADR. Suitability is determined by the route, distance, and operational pattern rather than the cargo itself. Maritime ZERO assesses each movement using real-world data such as journey length, dwell times, delivery windows, vehicle utilisation, and charging availability to identify where electric vehicles can operate efficiently. Many first and final-mile or regional routes are already well suited to eHGVs with additional routes becoming more viable as our national charging network expands. Where electrification isn’t the best fit, we’ll recommend alternatives such as rail or HVO to ensure your cargo is moved reliably and with the lowest possible emissions. If you’d like to understand whether your specific routes are suitable for eHGVs, our team can review your requirements and advise on the most effective approach.
Our national charging network includes a number of depot and rail-connected sites, positioned close to major ports and logistics corridors to maximise operational coverage. Installations are live or underway in Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Doncaster (iPort), Wakefield, Northampton, Alconbury, Felixstowe, London Distribution Park (Tilbury), Southampton, East Midlands Gateway, and Avonmouth.
Our eHGVs are being deployed in phases from sites where high-powered charging is already installed or underway, supporting first and final-mile operations within Maritime’s intermodal and distribution network. Deployment will expand alongside infrastructure growth, prioritising routes and contracts best suited to electric operation.
Our current vehicles operate with an average range of 300–500km per charge, depending on vehicle type, load, and route profile. With our extensive high-powered charging network, this range can be extended with minimal downtime. Charging from 20-80% typically takes under one hour using megawatt-enabled infrastructure.
Our hub-and-spoke model connects all major UK ports and industrial areas to a network of inland rail terminals, enabling containers to move long distances by rail before completing final miles by road. When paired with eHGVs, this approach delivers significant emissions savings across supply chains. For example, railing containers from the Port of Felixstowe to our iPort Rail Freight Terminal, then completing onward delivery to Armthorpe by eHGV, removes over 175 road miles and cuts CO2 emissions by more than 70% in a single journey.
Yes. Selected Maritime ZERO sites will offer third-party charging access for approved hauliers, fleet operators, and logistics providers seeking reliable, high-powered charging without the cost or delay of installing their own infrastructure. Each location has multiple bays, rated from 100 kW to 1 MW, positioned close to ports, rail terminals, and logistics corridors. To enquire about access or availability, contact [email protected].
Yes. Emissions can be calculated for every container journey we complete in line with Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC) standards, covering all stages from collection to final delivery and every transport mode – rail, diesel HGV, and eHGV. The system is fully integrated with TOPS, using live operational data such as route, vehicle type, and load weight to generate accurate results automatically. This enables clear reporting for Scope 3 disclosures, regular progress tracking, and actionable insights to help reduce emissions across your supply chain. Looking ahead, we plan to introduce a certification scheme alongside a book-and-claim portal in 2026.
