Agenda

• Towards freight decarbonisation: Codognotto strategy & new collaboration with Tevva Motors Limited. Ms. Alessia Padalino. Innovation & Digital Transformation Specialist at Codognotto

The presentation will briefly introduce the main decarbonization opportunities Codognotto is actively engaged with in the implementation of ALICE roadmap towards zero emission logistics. The presentation will address 3 main pillars: integrated intermodal transport management, digitalization and logistics 4.0 for better management of resources and energy transition of the road transportation fleet. Codognotto will share the new collaboration with TEVVA in order to accelerate this transition

• Collaborating to Deliver Zero Emission Freight. Phil Henrick. Sales & Aftersales Director at TEVVA

As logistics operators and fleets across Europe get ready to meet the joint demands of policymakers and customers, the medium to heavy duty vehicle market presents a critical opportunity for impact on freight-related emissions reduction. The key is to combine technologies to create an overall better product than diesel with a lower environmental footprint, a lower cost of ownership and lower maintenance costs. Tevva’s Phil Henrick will explain Tevva’s approach of blended Hydrogen and Electric technologies and how it is collaborating to ensure fleets can meet the full spectrum of economic and sustainability goals.

• An Post’s Fleet Electrification Journey – 0% to 25% and beyond! John Smith. Head of Sustainable Infrastructure and Facilities Management at An Post.

The presentation will introduce An Post, giving context about the activities of the company. It will then introduce An Post’s electric fleet and the organisation’s ambitious emission reduction targets. It will give an overview of the journey from a 0% to a 25% electric fleet, in addition to presenting the challenges and opportunities associated with an extensive electric fleet. Finally, it will detail An Post’s next steps towards further decarbonising its fleet.

• Zero emission temperature-controlled system for urban and sub-urban deliveries Filip Kitanoski. Founder. PRODUCTBLOKS.

The presentation will introduce the productbloks solution to deliver temperature-sensitive goods such as foodstuffs or pharmaceuticals to customers reliably and without emitting any CO2. Being the first market ready propane transport refrigeration unit for a fully-integrated refrigerated battery electric light commercial vehicles (eLCV) the solution maximises the payload, robustness and the eLCV driving range guaranteeing reliable transport of temperature sensible goods. It replaces the environmentally unfriendly high-GWP refrigerants currently on the market providing real zero-emission operation. The one-of-its-kind solution has the highest volumetric efficiency with the lowest mass. Intelligent predictive control ensures efficient and fast door-opening temperature recovery.
