Diesel. Still the fuel of choice
• Still currently today’s freight fuel of choice
• Trucks contribute approximately 6% to global
CO₂ emissions
• Improvements have been made and today’s 40
tonne trucks burn approx. ⅓ less fuel than 40
years ago
• The latest Euro 5 vehicle models emit only
10% of the emissions made by trucks 30 years
ago

Waitrose – The Biomethane fleet
• UK retailer Waitrose is trialling 12 CNG bio methane
trucks in its fleet.
• Each truck has a range of 500 miles.
• Powered 100% by bio methane created from waste
food material.
• The “food scrap” fleet is 40% less expensive to run
than diesel.
• 70% less CO2 is generated by each truck.
• The methane is produced from decomposing food
waste.
• Each truck costs 50% more than a standard diesel
truck.
• But due to longer lifespan and lower operating costs
each truck will on average save £100k.
