Decarbonising Logistics Showcase

By 2040 there will no longer be the option to purchase new diesel powered HGVs, yet many suppliers are struggling to define their strategy to tackle Scope 3 emissions. Our customers tell us they're held back by the number of options, not knowing which combination is right for them, or how much they should be paying.

Come and join us for a one day event bringing together all available options to reduce emissions immediately, with exhibitors and industry experts on alternative fuel solutions, load and vehicle fill optimisation, and modal shift to rail.

With significantly increasing pressure from consumers and customers to take action, get ahead of the curve now. The showcase will help you navigate your route to decarbonisation, one truck at a time.

If your organisations holds a membership for a Simply Supply Chain Workgroup then you can register for free.

Modal Shift to Rail

76% lower carbon emissions and 129 HGVs are taken off the road for every single freight train.

Freightliner have long pioneered the shift from road to rail for a more efficient and sustainable service and provide customers the widest national coverage.

A Pathway to Net Zero Through Intermodal Innovation

The Malcom Group is taking action to provide customers with a net-zero pathway, through several initiatives, introducing electric and gas vehicles to their fleet, along with increasing investment in rail freight infrastructure, this service is saving 511 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year.

Supporting Transition to BEV

Pioneers on the journey to net zero, Volvo currently have the largest number of BEV HGV trucks in the UK, supporting customers to define their business case, collaborate on a final solution and support through transition to BEV.

Pioneering Biofuel Provision and Infrastructure

Gasrec supplies Bio-LNG & Bio-CNG fuel to UK heavy goods vehicles. They build, supply, and operate refuelling stations across the UK, helping transport companies reduce carbon emissions by over 80%. Gasrec are working to create a network of large-scale publicly available refuelling facilities across the UK in strategic locations in partnership with BP. Gasrec wants UK HGV operators to be able to refuel across the length and breadth of the UK and achieve a diesel-like experience while slashing emissions

Joint Operator Logistics Trial for EVs

A consortium of academia, truck operators, and leading EV ecosystem players, Project Jolt is using data to optimise eHGV fleet transition.

Led by The Centre for Sustainable Road Freight (SRF), Project Jolt offers trials providing participants with shared access to a fleet of electric vehicles and mobile chargers. High resolution operational data is collected during each trial period and then analysed, anonymised, and shared with all partners as part of a managed collective learning process.
