Tool to calculate truck emissions


The EU requires climate-friendly trailers. Therefore, in addition to towing vehicles, it will set fleet thresholds for trailers for the first time, starting in 2024. Trailer manufacturers who fail to comply with the EU's fleet consumption targets can expect fines. One- to three-axle semi-trailers will be certified, as well as central axle and turntable trailers.

 

The Vecto-Tool calculates the emission by considering different usable loads and dimensions but also by considering different bonus factors.

 

First calculations with the tool show that it is possible to reach the stricter standards. BPW Group for example fulfils the EU climate protection targets for trailers by CO2 and fuel savings along with other specifications relating to the transport sector. (ben)
