The freight industry has a massive problem of inefficiency – it’s called empty miles.35% of trucks on the road today are driving empty, and our environment is paying the price with millions of CO2 metric tons of emissions wasted every year.

On this episode of Net-Zero Carbon, Tyler Cole, FreightWaves director of carbon intelligence, sits down with Mike Roeth, executive director of the North American Council for Freight Efficiency (NACFE) to discuss the findings from NACFE’s latest initiative: Run on Less — Electric. 

This year’s program featured 13 trucks demonstrating real-world truck technologies focusing on real routes, carrying real freight in a variety of duty cycles and applications. They talk about this opportunity and where other companies have the ability to put electric power to work in their own supply chains.
