TLS Group

Solar helps TLS Group with longer battery life, lower diesel and less CO2.

TLS Group reduces fuel consumption on every kilometre driven and every hour their vehicles power equipment on site.

About TLS Group

TLS Group A/S is a specialist third-party logistics provider for technical equipment, operating across Denmark and Sweden. Part of the DANX Carousel network, TLS transports, prepares, assembles, and dismantles equipment for industrial customers.

Zero Capex

Subscription model — no upfront investment

The Challenge

When TLS vehicles reach their destination, their work continues on site preparing, assembling and dismantling equipment for customers. Lights, lifts and tools all draw power from the diesel tank. With diesel around 16 DKK per litre, that dual demand adds up fast, both on cost and on CO2.

The Solution

Vehicle-mounted solar systems now power tools for longer and reduce diesel consumption across the TLS fleet – on every km driven and when vehicles are stationary on site. Installation was carried out at Green Energy’s facility in Vejle.

No Upfront Investment

TLS adopted solar on a subscription basis – no Capex, no operational disruption – and savings starting from day one.

TESTIMONIAL

“Electrification is not yet a realistic option for the kind of operation we run, but the pressure on fuel costs and emissions does not wait. Our customers expect us to keep reducing the footprint of every delivery, while our margins demand we keep cutting diesel where we can. With solar, we can act now to address both. That is where the real value is for us.”
