moEVing – Bringing out a change in logistics vehicles
Before getting into the article, let’s get to know about the pollution caused by the logistics sector alone in India. Improved logistics can bring about important environmental benefits. Currently, the share of CO2 emissions from logistics is around 7% of the total CO2 emissions in India, which will grow rapidly as “Make in India” is currently being implemented rapidly.
In Delhi, freight amounts to 67% of the total PM2.5 emissions from the transport sector, 61% of the total SO2 emissions from the transportation sector, and 62% of the total NOx emissions from the transportation sector. Converting Logistics and freight vehicles into electric leaves zero carbon footprint and it will also increase the demand for trucking services, Electrifying the logistics and freight services will help India to meet its international climate commitments while simultaneously reducing pollution in India’s most populated cities. The Government should take an initiative to bring out a change in the logistics segment.
