Sustainability continues to be in the spotlight of the logistics chain. Up to 800 million tons of co2 emissions worldwide come from logistical processes, and more specifically, from maritime transport. This figure represents 2.5% of the planet’s total co2 emissions.
A wide range of regulations and goals push logistics operators to offer more sustainable solutions. Specifically, Spain plans to reduce its 336 million tons of CO2 emissions to 80 MT by 2050. At a global scale, the International Maritime Organization has imposed a new limit on sulphur emissions from maritime transport, which will enter into force next year 2020, with the aim of reducing the environmental impact of maritime transport.
Digital transformation is key to green logistics
The logistics sector is becoming increasingly open to technological innovation, which offers a wide range of tools that make it possible to improve the efficiency and sustainability of logistics services.
Real-time cargo tracking systems play a key role in the technological development of the logistics sector, as they allow real-time and highly detailed insights into the status of the process.
In addition, this type of system opens the door to the possibility of assessing data such as greenhouse gas emissions produced during the transport process, in order to evaluate the total impact of logistics operations and establish guidelines towards less polluting alternatives.
