Since 2021, we have been making progress in the use of electric trucks for B2B deliveries, i.e. the route from Distribution Centers to pharmacies. In addition, part of the fleet has switched to S10 diesel, a less carbon-intensive fuel. We continue working to strengthen the partnerships with last mile delivery companies to increase the use of electric motorcycles, bicycles, and tuk-tuks. We also implemented a cargo optimization project for trucks that make deliveries between DCs and pharmacies, maximizing vehicle occupancy by 20% and reducing the number of trucks required for deliveries. Additionally, we continued to reap the benefits of the driver training conducted in partnership with Fabet in 2022. The goal was to improve the driving skills of our professionals, aiming for better performance and defensive driving, which resulted in a reduction in diesel consumption. Sustainable deliveries account for 11.26% of total deliveries, a 2.2 percentage points increase compared to the previous year. We have 72% of operations powered by renewable energy. This progress is a result of our efforts to connect more pharmacies to distributed generation plants. Our goal is to ensure that 100% of our energy consumption comes from renewable sources by 2030.
