ACTIVITIES
The new sorting centre, located near Kaunas Airport and the planned Rail Baltic railway line, covers 21,932 square meters. The centre features solar panels to meet its energy needs and achieved an A++ energy class, which is 38% lower than the threshold for nearly zero-energy buildings in Lithuania.
The project aims to automate and centralise parcel sorting in the Baltic market, creating a regional hub and making Omniva an attractive partner for major e-commerce platforms. The centre has 600 sorting stations on the sorting line and can sort 12,000 packages per hour. It also has 91 docks for vans and trucks and all our local electric vehicles can charge their batteries from solar generated energy. The entire plot size is 89,960 square meters.
IMPACT
1. Improved efficiency: increased electricity usage lowers PostNord’s price per kWh.
2. Environmental impact: sharing charging infra- structure reduces the need for additional builds.
3. Green energy: PostNord uses 100% certified green electricity, allowing other trucks access to the same energy.
