Q & A

  • What is the primary goal of Green Logistics?

    -The primary goal of Green Logistics is to reduce carbon emissions in the logistics and transport sector.

  • How does multimodal transport contribute to Green Logistics?

    -Multimodal transport reduces carbon emissions by efficiently combining different modes of transportation, such as road, rail, and sea.

  • What are the expected changes in last-mile delivery?

    -In last-mile delivery, there will be a shift towards electric vehicles, as well as the use of CNG and LNG for shorter distances.

  • What types of fuel are anticipated for long-haul logistics?

    -For long-haul logistics, CNG, LNG, and potentially hydrogen are expected to be utilized.

  • What is the 'hub and spoke' model mentioned in the context of Green Logistics?

    -The 'hub and spoke' model refers to a system where goods are transported from various origins to a central hub and then distributed to final destinations, optimizing efficiency and reducing emissions.

  • In what timeframe is decarbonization expected to accelerate in logistics?

    -Decarbonization in the logistics transport sector is expected to accelerate significantly over the next five to ten years.

  • Why is the focus on the last mile significant for Green Logistics?

    -The focus on the last mile is significant because it represents a critical point where emissions can be minimized, leading to a substantial overall reduction in logistics-related carbon footprints.

  • What role do electric vehicles play in Green Logistics?

    -Electric vehicles play a crucial role in reducing emissions during short-distance deliveries, contributing to a cleaner logistics system.

  • How do CNG and LNG contribute to Green Logistics?

    -CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) and LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) are cleaner alternatives to traditional fossil fuels, helping to lower emissions in both short and long-haul transportation.

  • What future fuel technology is mentioned as a potential option?

    -Hydrogen is mentioned as a potential future fuel technology for long-haul logistics, which could further decrease carbon emissions.
