Low carbon Finished Vehicle Logistics Solutions

At CEVA Finished Vehicle Logistics (FVL), we are conscious about the need to reduce our CO₂e emissions as it is a vital step for our Group to meet its climate goals and to achieve net zero carbon by 2050. We see there a tremendous opportunity to modernize the way of doing business, including upgrading our vehicle fleet with units powered by alternative low-carbon fuels, implementing innovative IT solutions to increase capacity usage and reduce empty mileage, installing solar panels on our storage compounds to meet our internal electricity consumption needs, and leveraging resource-efficient solutions for our compound operations. Through innovation solutions and continuous process improvement, we make our operations more sustainable, in the interest of our customers, society and the planet.

Promoting decarbonization cross the FVL market

Our approach to promoting low carbon solutions to the market is holistic, pragmatic and collaborative. We constantly monitor the latest developments in the areas of alternative energies, transport engineering, carbon emissions calculation methods and IT and AI tools. Therefore, we offer our clients the solutions that suit the best their needs given the specifics of their supply chain operations and the current state of development of low-carbon alternatives.

Dedicated Low Carbon Solutions - We offer low-carbon vehicles dedicated to specific customer operations. We thoroughly track and trace the transport activity and the low-carbon energy consumption, and we issue CO₂e reduction declarations to our customers so that they can reduce their carbon footprint accordingly.
Mass Balance Model – We let our customers benefit from CO₂e reduction generated by the use of biofuels by our own FVL network. We use only Generation 2 biofuels produced from food processing industry waste and biomass, strictly in compliance with the EU regulations (e.g. REDIII Directive). The Mass balance model offers great flexibility and is suitable for all types of FVL road operations. To our customers, we issue CO₂e reduction declarations to attest to the volume of avoided emissions that they can deduct from their overall carbon footprint calculation. Our process is certified by a third-party auditor.

Modal shift to rail – CEVA FVL is one of the leading rail transport service providers in Europe. Our own fleet of wagons exceeds 2,750 units. Our goal is to maximize the use of our wagon fleet, because one block-train can take off the road a few dozens of standard FVL trucks. All main-haul traction provided by our railway haulers in Europe is electrified, which means potential reduction of CO₂e emission by more than 80%.
Low-carbon sea Roll-On/Roll-Off offer – CEVA FVL operates a growing fleet of RoRo vessels. A significant part of our fleet is made up of the latest generation of LNG-powered vessels. We offer our customers low carbon options based on the use of SMF (Sustainable Marine Fuel) allocated through the book-and-claim method.
