Challenges of fuel and energy consumption for industry-wide sustainability

The transportation industry underpins the global economy but is often on the receiving end of criticism for being a polluting sector. This isn’t unfounded as the global logistics industry contributed nearly 7.7 GT of CO2 emissions in 2021, accounting for around three percent of all global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. There has been a move towards more fuel-efficient vehicles, but the cost of procurement and maintenance can often become an obstacle. Inefficient routes, coupled with old and unmaintained vehicles, can directly increase your fuel consumption and thereby affect your capital requirements. Finding digital solutions to tackle these concerns is vital in reducing your individual impact and increasing profitability in the long run.
