Using RNG instead of diesel fuel significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions
Truckload operator Werner Enterprises is an early evaluator of the latest powertrain technologies, including a hydrogen-powered Cummins engine.
The infrastructure, cost and emissions benefits of renewable natural gas make it a promising alternative fuel to decarbonize trucking, experts said.
Renewable natural gas (RNG) is the leading low carbon solution that helps trucking companies and shippers reduce their carbon footprint and meet their sustainability goals.
While many companies put environmental concerns on the back burner the past two years, “the topic has very much returned to the top of the agenda for most leading players in the industry today,” said Greg Hewitt, CEO at DHL Express USA.
“Demand for RNG will continue its rapid growth trajectory. We are in the early days of seeing corporate goals to reduce carbon turned into actual actions,” Greg Roche, vice president of sustainability at Clean Energy, told FreightWaves.
Strong economic growth and growing populations will drive increases in global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions and energy consumption through 2050
