Introduction

India’s freight and logistics sector is the backbone of the economy, moving ~70% of goods across the country. Yet, heavy-duty diesel trucks,  though just ~5% of total vehicles, contribute nearly 40% of transport-related CO₂ emissions. This imbalance makes freight a top priority in India’s decarbonization roadmap.

Blue Energy Motors Limited (BEM) has entered this landscape with a disruptive approach: LNG-powered trucks. These provide an immediate, lower-emission solution for long-haul freight, cutting CO₂ by ~30% while eliminating sulphur oxides and particulate emissions. At the same time, the company is investing in EV truck manufacturing,  ensuring it stays aligned with the long-term vision of zero-emission transport.

Founded in 2020, Blue Energy Motors Limited is headquartered in Pune, Maharashtra.

  • Founder & Leadership: Led by Anirudh Bhuwalka (former MD, Asia Motor Works).
  • Manufacturing Capacity: Chakan (Pune) plant with a capacity of 10,000 trucks annually.
