Last June, the international transport and logistics company DHL and Shell have started a project for the use of bioLNG in the road transport sector. Specifically, there have been tests on three transport vehicles of the Danish company that goes by the name of Grundfos which have obtained a significant reduction of emissions: in the first 5 months of activity there has been a reduction of up to 87 tons of CO2 which means that there has been a reduction of 85% of emissions if compared to traditional engines.
From what was declared by DHL Freight’s CEO, Uwe Brinks, the logistics sector is, as of now, responsible for 11% of total global emissions and for this reason the transport sector has to find practical solutions for the decarbonisation process, not only through the use of green fuels but also through the renewal of the vehicle fleet.
Grundfos has been using bioLNG by the plants of Bjerringbro in Denmark and Longeville-Les-Saint-Avold in France, a process in line with current 2030 goals highlighted by the company. The bioLNG used in its tests was produced from agricultural waste in accordance with the standards put forward by the Renewable Energy Directive of the European Union (REDII).
