Evald Karlssons: Better managing fuel efficiency for optimum savings
How Evald Karlssons advances fuel efficiency to further reduce consumption, environmental impact and costs.
Establishing a baseline
Evald Karlssons is an excellent sustainability ambassador for the haulage industry. The company has put great effort into operating in a fuel-efficient way through many factors including the improvement of vehicle technology and employee engagement.
The company was already operating in a 15% more fuel efficient way than an average company within its industry. With lean, dedicated management, the company’s starting point was approx. 34L/100km, compared with an average of approx. 40L/100km.
Fast results for big savings
The company began using Greater Than’s risk intelligence into climate impact to uncover new insights.
Greater Than’s Climate Impact Score enables Evald Karlssons to measure climate impact at a fleet level, as well as at the individual driver and vehicle level. Since using the Score, the company has achieved 13% additional fuel savings.
Digging deep into fuel consumption by vehicle
Greater Than’s risk intelligence provides Evald Karlssons with new insights that highlight how much of an influence the driver has on fuel consumption. This graph shows the outcome for one specific truck over time, driven by 17 different drivers. It clearly shows that the driver is a major factor in fuel consumption.
Analyzing fuel consumption by driver
It’s also interesting to see the data when looking at individual drivers. The graph to the right shows the outcome for one individual driver, using 10 different trucks over 1,393 trips. It’s clear to see how the driver’s varying score corresponds with fuel consumption; the higher the score, the lower the fuel consumption.
Leveraging new insights to accelerate environmental efforts
It can be concluded that, despite starting with best-in-class fuel consumption, the company has achieved massive additional fuel savings.
The Climate Impact Score has strengthened Evald Karlssons’ sustainability efforts by providing intelligence that is used to:
- Inspire and motivate drivers to get involved in sustainability efforts
- Deliver automated feedback directly to drivers, based on performance
- Provide fair measurement of climate impact, regardless of vehicle type or location
