Heavy equipment users have a new tool from Volvo Construction Equipment to help with carbon reduction goals tailored to their operations.

The CO2 Reduction Program is designed to be integrated into an organization’s operational plans and offers insights, analysis, improvement possibilities and sustainability targets while working toward carbon neutrality. The approach will be designed specifically to each user’s goals and operations.

The program will start by analyzing where an organization stands on its carbon emissions to establish a baseline for making improvements. It will use data from connected machines to determine the carbon footprint for all machines, regardless of brand, that are in use. Volvo CE says this will help users visualize the impact of carbon reduction changes over time.

An analysis developed for HSBC UK by a team at Harper Adams University forwards a list of ‘key suggestions’ to cut carbon emissions and the carbon footprint of the UK food supply chain.

Three academics from the University’s department of food, land and agri-business management prepared the report, which examines the issues currently facing the UK’s supply chain when it comes to sustainability – and makes recommendations as to how improvements could be made.
