ISS is working with LeasePlan to electrify its global fleet to reach its fleet net zero target by 2030.

LeasePlan and ISS will work collaboratively to accelerate sustainability initiatives, with electrification as the key lever

The firm, a leading workplace experience and facility management company, has a fleet of around 20,000 vehicles on a global scale, emitting 60,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions a year, within scope 1.

A total of 70% of ISS’s total fleet re leased through LeasePlan and the new partnership will see the two businesses work collaboratively to accelerate sustainability initiatives, with electrification as the key lever. The work will also see LeasePlan and ISS work jointly to achieve fleet optimisation and make sure the right vehicle is chosen for the right application.

The deal comes as part of a series of sustainability initiatives being launched by ISS to reach full-scope net zero in 2040.

Tracy Nilsson, global head of sustainability at ISS World Services A/S, said: “Not one company can solve the climate crisis on their own, so collaboration is essential in building a more sustainable future. We have worked with LeasePlan for many years and have already built a strong relationship, so we are very excited about working jointly with them on sustainable mobility, which will be one of the key drivers in ISS’s sustainability efforts going forward.”

The partnership will initially launch in Denmark, Germany, Norway and the UK in 2022, with further countries to follow in 2023 and onwards. Initiatives will be rolledout in all ISS markets to support the fleet net zero journey.
