French carrier promotes road-to-rail shift


Fret SNCF will use the Gurobi Optimizer as the engine of its new, end-to-end freight train planning solution. With this integrated, automated planning platform, the French railfreight carrier will be able to maximise resource utilisation, minimise costs and improve service quality and competitiveness – so that the mother company SNCF can help achieve France’s goal of doubling the annual share of rail in overland freight volumes in the next ten years.

 

SNCF is working with the other members of the 4F Alliance – comprising railfreight operators, multimodal logistics companies and domestic rail associations in France – to help reach the sustainable mobility targets set forth in the European green deal, which calls for a 90% reduction from greenhouse gas emissions in transport by 2050.
