The carbon emission from vehicle is constantly on the rise with the booming automobile usage. The greenhouse gases are a threat to the environment & human lives. Many fleet managers are coming up with ways to control carbon emission from fleets. This ppt shows some easy to practise measures including use of GPS system to reduce carbon footprint.

fleet

3. •Most of us are aware of the huge amount of carbon & other greenhouse gases are
emitted from our vehicles causing environmental pollution and serious health hazards.
•In 2016, India’s greenhouse gas emissions rose by 4.7% than its previous year
according to Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency.
• Many fleet management organisations are looking for ways to curb the carbon
emission created by their vehicle fleets.
•India has vowed to reduce its emissions intensity by 35% of 2005 levels by 2030.
•We bring you some measures that can be implemented to reduce carbon emission
from fleet.

5. Servicing vehicle
•An unmaintained
vehicle consumes more
fuel than a well serviced
one and emits more
greenhouse gases.
•Thus always keep your
vehicle’s engine & other
parts serviced.
Measure & manageReduce idling
•Keep a regular record
of emission levels and
create a report.
•The report will help you
analyse if the emissions
are normal and if found
to be greater, one can
take required measure to
curb it.
•According to
Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA),
when left idle, a
standard heavy-duty
truck burns roughly up
to 3.5 litres of diesel for
every hour.
• Thus reducing idling
can reduce carbon
emission.

6. Tyres
Avoid
unnecessary
journeys
Responsible
driving
•Right amount of inflated
tyres can increase
vehicle’s mileage by 3
percent which means
less fuel consumed &
less greenhouse gases
released.
•Thus maintaining right
tyre pressure is
important.
•Use vehicles only if
utmost required.
•With latest
technologies like video
calling & conferencing,
the need to meet
someone in person is
reduced by large.
•Normally driving beyond
70 to 80 kmph consumes
more fuel along with
harsh acceleration and
aggressive braking
leading to increased
carbon emission.
•Thus driving responsibly
itself reduces the carbon
footprint.

7. The best way to reduce or reduce carbon emission by a greater number is to use green source of
energy like electricity. Many electric vehicles are already available in the market while many
commercial EVs are lined up.
Use Electric
Vehicle
No amount of measures for cutting emission will work out unless driver themselves practise best
driving. Creating awareness among drivers about carbon emissions with its consequences will
help besides providing incentives or rewards for “Greenest Driver” could help.
Driver
Awareness
Instead of carrying out order-to-order delivery, if organisations choose to deliver larger loads over
fewer trips, it can save a large amount fuel and eventually carbon emission. Optimizing delivery
schedules can be helpful with the help of good fleet management software.Optimize

8. •Using good fleet
management software
like Tracko is very
beneficial for
organisations as it not
only determines
optimised routes for
vehicles but also gives
live status of vehicles.
Use of GPS fleet management software
•Fleet management
software accurately
assesses the real time
route patterns and with
the history of previous
trips, managers can set
an optimal route, saving
fuel & subsequent
emission.
•It also notifies the time for
which vehicle is idle and
also if the driver over
speeds. Going hard on
accelerator directly results
into increased carbon
emission. Thus by assessing
the driver’s behaviour; one
can take the necessary
steps.

9. •Although the above measures can reduce carbon emission, none of them can
reduce your ecological impact entirely.
•Switching to green alternatives seems to be the best solution as of now.
•Though replacing your entire fleet will take a huge amount of expenses & time,
once can start by using GPS tracking systems to track & analyze their entire fuel and
control fuel consumption.
