Description

In this Episode of Sustainability Champions I speak with Jakob Muus, Founder and CEO of Tracks For Trucks and Champion of Sustainable Supply Chains.
Did you know that the road freight industry is responsible for roughly 6% of the European CO2 emissions? Our global world depends on intricate supply chains to move food and goods from centralized production facilities to sales points all around the world.
Optimising our network of transport, whether trucks, ships or trains, will lead to both reduced CO2 emissions while also saving money for the companies moving the goods. Especially because the road freight industry runs on small margins, all cost savings helps. So do we go about improving the situation?
Tracks For Trucks is an analytics firm that compiles data from freight trucks to help reduce environmental footprints and increase their efficiency. Every modern truck comes with a constantly-updating SIM card that sends data from multiple sensors to cloud-servers, Tracks for Trucks uses that data to develop strategies and solutions for greener supply chains.


And considering the fact that before Tracks For Trucks, data analysis was done in lengthy spreadsheets with an error factor of up to 400% , their solution can impact the entire freight industry on a large-scale.
