XPO LOGISTICS AND MAZDA USE HVO TRUCKS TO CUT AFTERSALES EMISSIONS

XPO Logistics and Mazda UK are working together to cut the carbon dioxide
emissions from the carmaker’s aftersales parts distribution network.

The companies plan to make the aftersales supply chain more sustainable by using
trucks that run on hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO). The renewable fuel is made
from vegetable oil, tallow or used cooking oil and is made from 100% renewable
waste.

Mazda and XPO Logistics team up to use HVO-powered trucks

XPO’s distribution fleet has 200 HVO trucks, which emit up to 90% less CO2 than
traditional diesel engine trucks, making up 9% of its overall fleet. The
logistics firm said it has installed a tank for HVO at its Motherwell site to
make access to the biofuel easier in more of its vehicles.

“Over the years, Mazda and XPO have built a genuine, long-term partnership
working together to successfully tackle multiple challenges from Brexit to the
pandemic,” said Dan Myers, managing director UK and Ireland, XPO Logistics.
“When faced with such an ambitious objective as decarbonising supply chains,
both organisations understood that working together was the only way to make
meaningful progress. That’s why we’re working as a single, focused team to
eliminate CO2 from Mazda’s UK logistics operations.”

David Wilson Green, customer service director, Mazda UK said: “At Mazda, we are
working to reduce CO2 emissions across our business, and it’s great to see the
work XPO Logistics is doing to help reduce emissions in our UK supply chain. We
are pleased that both companies share the same ethos of reducing the carbon
footprint of their businesses.”

Earlier in the year, BMW said it would be expanding its use of HVO-powered
trucks alongside electrified equipment to meet green logistics goals. BMW’s
logistics provider Guggemos (GV Trucknet) is running a trial on a fraction of
the fleet, with four trucks running on renewable HVO100 diesel between BMW’s
Munich plant and landau an der Isar, about 120km to the northeast. It’s part of
a one-year pilot programme for trialling the new fuel and was recently expanded
to include another six trucks from third party logistics provider DB Schenker.

While using HVO fuel is seen to be an interim method to sustainability, it is
important in the short-term, as electrified trucks will take longer to come into
play due to regulations and shortages of charging infrastructure. Carmakers like
Nissan and Hyundai have been ramping up trials for electric vehicle (EV) and
fuel cell trucks for the onward delivery of finished vehicles.

Steve Jernigan, senior director of Supply Chain at Nissan North America said
Nissan has been learning from a challenging electric truck trial in California.
He told delegates at the recent FVL North America 2023 conference that Nissan
has been collecting data from the trial to improve a future rollout on a larger
scale. 

Hyundai is set to launch its hydrogen fuel cell electric truck trial this month.
The trial, in partnership with the state of California, will use Class 8
hydrogen-powered vehicles, developed based on XClient Fuel Cell, a new
mass-produced heavy-duty hydrogen truck. Hyundai has already logged over 4m
commercial miles in Europe using the trucks, having debuted the project in
Switzerland in 2020. In the California pilot, Hyundai is starting with eight of
the trucks and plans to use 30 throughout the programme.

from our Red Sofa interview with Steve Jernigan at FVL North America 2023.
