CO₂e avoided this quarter through smart consolidation & backhaul matching
7
passenger cars taken off the road for a year — equivalent impact
Smart consolidation and backhaul load-matching reduced empty running by an estimated 23.8 tonnes CO₂e from backhaul alone. Combined with multi-drop route optimisation, total avoided impact reached 32.1 t CO₂e — equivalent to removing 7 cars from Australian roads for a year.

Methodology & Emission Factors

All CO₂e figures use the GLEC Framework v3 (Global Logistics Emissions Council) well-to-wheel emission factors for diesel road freight, cross-referenced with Australian NGER Technical Guidelines. Calculations follow: payload (t) × distance (km) × emission factor (g/t-km) = grams CO₂e.

Light Van (≤3.5t)
250 g CO₂e/t-km
Rigid Truck (8–12t)
180 g CO₂e/t-km
Semi-Trailer (Articulated)
62 g CO₂e/t-km
B-Double
45 g CO₂e/t-km

The Australian road-freight benchmark of 62 g CO₂e/t-km is sourced from the National Transport Commission (NTC) 2023 survey of the heavy vehicle fleet. B-double intensity is below benchmark due to higher payload density per trip. Metro van intensity is above benchmark — consistent with last-mile logistics globally.

Avoided emissions are calculated based on backhaul-matched loads: distance that would have been run empty × vehicle emission factor × average payload. Passenger-car equivalence uses the DISER/US-EPA figure of 4.6 t CO₂e per vehicle per year.
