Transport Efficiency and Environmental Audit

An average HGV travelling 80,000 miles per annum will currently use around £45,000 of fuel each year.  If transport efficiency is increased by only 5% this provides a fuel saving of £2,250 and a 5.85 tonne reduction of CO2 per vehicle per year.  This is looking at fuel alone, if total vehicle and transport costs are considered far greater savings are achieved.  THE LOGISTICS BUSINESS Audit Programme is aimed at identifying these efficiency and environmental opportunities within your transport fleet and providing practical information on the environmental implications of your transport activities.
