Goal 9: Industry, Innovation and Well Being

Eco-cars technology

We piloted Eco-cars technology across our fleet as part of our commitment to innovation and environmental stewardship within the transportation industry. This technology is a device for fuel optimisation, enabling vehicles to achieve more efficient combustion.

Through this pilot, we achieved a 5.2% reduction in fuel consumption. This allows Hegelmann to save €476 and €175 monthly for our MAN and Mercedes Trucks. From an emissions point of view, this pilot demonstrated a potential annual reduction in emissions of 10,674 kgCO2 for our MAN Trucks and 3,924 kgCO2 for our Mercedes Trucks.

Following a successful pilot, we see Eco-car’s innovation playing a key role in our decarbonisation strategy. We aim to implement the Eco-cars technology across our entire fleet in 2024. Such initiatives demonstrate how operational efficiencies can have financial benefits and align with environmental sustainability. This underscores our commitment to a sustainable future.
