GLEC Framework for Logistics Emissions Accounting and Reporting version 3.0 - Chinese
Freight transportation and logistics activities currently contribute 8‒10% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and demand for freight transport is expected to almost triple by 2050, according to the International Transport Forum.To meet the Climate Targets of the United Nations’ Paris Agreement, it is crucial to improve the efficiency of freight transport and reduce transport-related emissions. A concerted global effort is necessary to achieve goals. The GLEC Framework v3 supports you in your efforts and contribution to reaching these goals.
SFC Exchange Network Stable Release 1.0 Report
The SFC Exchange Network is a sociotechnical project aiming to establish a decentralized data exchange system for capturing logistics greenhouse gas emissions. It addresses challenges such as data gaps and interoperability issues by supporting organizations in acquiring reliable data and facilitating peer-to-peer data exchange. Building on previous SFC projects and integrating the iLEAP data model, it envisions achieving emissions transparency and promoting decarbonization within transport chains. Operating on the concept of dataspaces, the network enables secure and seamless data sharing, with stakeholders governing the ecosystem collaboratively.
Unlocking Your Carrier's Electrification Buy-in: A Guide with the 3rd Party Electrification Framework
Road freight is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. Electrification offers a powerful solution, but carrier hesitancy due to market uncertainty, knowledge gaps, and resource constraints can stall progress. This guide equips freight buyers with the 3rd Party Electrification Framework (3PEF) – a roadmap to: align with carriers on the vision for electrification, build strong collaborative partnerships, and to offer operational support to ease the transition.
