CLIMATE & ENVIRONMENT
Frode Laursen’s most significant carbon footprint
stems from our Scope 3 emissions, which account
for 75% of all our emissions, up 4 percentage points
relative to 2022. The increase is primarily because we
have registered additional sources of Scope 3 emissions, i.e. more ferry crossings.
Other transport suppliers are our biggest source
of Scope 3 emissions, and therefore, we are focusing
on reducing the CO2e emissions from these haulage
operations. Working very closely with many of our
suppliers is a big advantage for Frode Laursen, and
therefore, over the past two years, we have offered
our permanent hauliers and their drivers courses that
focus on driving style. An optimised driving style can
reduce fuel consumption by up to 10% and thus also
CO2e emissions.
At the same time, much of the haulage handled
by our permanent hauliers is based on EMS road
trains that can transport 52 pallets per load instead of
the ‘usual’ 33.
We look forward to using our experience with
EMS road trains in 2024, when both Denmark and
Sweden will allow pilot projects with DUO2 double
trailer road trains. DUO2 road trains can transport
twice as much as an ordinary truck, thus ensuring
lower CO2e emissions per transported pallet.
