Liberty Tire Recycling | 2022 Environmental, Social & Governance Report 27 ACCELERATING ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP Alternative Fuels Liberty Tire is always looking for opportunities to improve fuel efficiency and maximize carbon reduction of our fleet of vehicles. In 2022, our Delta, British Columbia facility took the pioneering step of testing the first EV Peterbilt 579 on the open road in Canada. While the vehicle showcased numerous benefits, including zero emissions, swift acceleration, and safety features like enhanced comfort, minimal noise, and shock-free operation, its range and usage time before requiring a charge made it unviable for our travel distances. We eagerly anticipate adopting electric vehicles once technology evolves to meet our business needs. Until then, we remain committed to route optimization and continuously exploring emerging technologies as they become feasible alternatives.
