LNG-trucks for carmaker
A new fleet of trucks powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG) is helping to drive sustainable logistics at MINI Plant Oxford, UK. 18 LNG trucks from Imperial have now hit the road, transporting parts and components from suppliers on 15 different routes across the UK to the home of the MINI brand.
The new fleet has already delivered a reduction of 20% in CO2 and NOX emissions, compared to diesel alternatives.
In future, a total CO2 reduction of up to 90% is expected by using bio-LNG. Imperial has installed its own LNG facility close to MINI Plant Oxford, which means vehicles on routes with limited refuelling opportunities can leave Oxford with a full tank. (ben)
