Reducing Environmental Impact and Increasing Sustainability in Logistics
ESP provides an avenue to decrease existing emissions by up to 20% through efficiency gains.
State of Emissions in Supply Chain
The transportation sector is responsible for 29% of global emissions, with global trade accounting for 30% of that amount. It is projected, with the continued globalization of trade, to increase 4x by 2050.
As freight volumes increase, so do emissions. To expedite rapid reductions in the environmental impact of transport activities, in many instances it is faster to extract efficiency gains and operational improvements around existing assets than it is to replace those assets with emerging new technologies.
How ESP Supports your Energy Efficiency Requirements
Monitor activity for compliance with environmental rules and laws including AQMD’s WAIRE program.
Assist with asset allocation through real-time and predictive analytics to minimize idling and wait times thereby reducing fuel consumption and miles driven.
Uses real-time traffic data to direct alternate routing to avoid congestion and reduce truck operating and idling times.
ESP analyzed traffic congestion in Southern California to determine the most efficient truck routes and scheduling.
Uses IOT sensored tracking to gain visibility into the number of unproductive turns for more scheduling efficiency.
Incorporates telematics systems to monitor and improve driving behavior and optimize fuel consumption.
Provides visibility into terminal and yard wait times to reduce truck emissions driven by excessive wait times.
Provides electrification support.
ESP analyzed truck dwell and traffic patterns in Ports LA/LB to determine where to locate electric charging stations in support of electrification of truck fleets.
Provides emission analysis to help lower energy use and carbon footprint
ESP analysis of where trucks are dwelling in Ports LA/LB (left) translated into emission plumes impacting air quality (right) to see where to concentrate efforts on reduction.
Above are only some of the ways we can help with decreasing your emissions. We will work with you on your specific needs. Our platform can not only analyze and show the root of your problem areas but work within your workflows to improve your sustainability through increasing productivity in your operations.
