dhl freight 是欧洲的公路货运服务供应商之一，已部署了首批能够牵引大型拖车的以液化天然气 (lng) 为动力的 iveco stralis 车之一。在为期一年的试验期内，这辆卡车将作为 dhl 物流中心和德国南部宝马集团生产工厂之间的日常穿梭车。得益于更高的装载高度和更高的燃油效率，公路运输中的大型拖车对汽车行业尤其重要，使 bmw group 成为在德国进行测试的理想合作伙伴。自去年与宝马集团续签合同以来，dhl 一直在管理这家汽车制造商在另外七个领域的供应链，以及 17 个国家/地区之间的所有公路运输。
“液化天然气卡车和大型拖车的结合是汽车物流的一个有前途的可持续解决方案。我们能够以方式满足客户的运输要求，同时显着减少供应链中的温室气体排放。dhl freight 执行官 uwe brinks 表示，使用天然气可提高燃油效率并减少有害排放，这有助于使长途公路运输更具可持续性。
dhl freight 在比利时获得了使用 lng 卡车的初步经验。自 2018 年夏季以来，其中四辆重型车已成为世界上的运动鞋和运动服开发商和销售商之一的可持续运输解决方案的一部分。现在，以天然气为动力的卡车可以与大型拖车相结合，这是以前由于油箱设计而无法实现的壮举。三米的内部装载高度使该设备成为汽车行业的解决方案，因为它不仅提供更大的装载能力，而且还可以装载更大的备件。
根据德国邮政 dhl 集团的目标，即到 2050 年将所有与物流相关的排放量减少到零净值，dhl freight 越来越多地投资于短途和长途运输的替代驱动器。与传统柴油动力发动机相比，lng 燃料卡车的燃油效率提高了 15%，行驶里程可达 1500 公里。这代表了直接的成本节约。与当前欧 vi 柴油规范要求的水平相比，它们的颗粒物排放量减少了 99%，氮氧化物 (nox) 排放量减少了 70%。当旅行包括市中心地区和全天候运输时，lng 动力发动机发出的噪音水平大大降低，提供了额外的好处。
dhl freight, one of the leading providers of road freight services in europe, has deployed one of the very first liquefied natural gas (lng)-powered iveco stralis long-haul trucks capable of towing a mega trailer. during a year-long trial period the truck will operate as a daily shuttle between dhl’s logistics center and a bmw group production plant in southern germany. thanks to a higher loading height and increased fuel efficiency, mega trailers in road transport are particularly important for the automotive industry, making bmw group the ideal partner for testing in germany. since last year’s contract renewal with the bmw group, dhl has been managing the automotive manufacturer’s supply chain in seven additional areas, as well as all road transport between 17 countries.
“the combination of lng truck and mega trailer is a promising sustainable solution for automotive logistics. we are able to meet the customer's transport requirements in the best possible way, while also significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions along the supply chain. the increase in fuel efficiency and proven reduction of harmful emissions that comes with using natural gas help to make long-distance road transport more sustainable,” states uwe brinks, ceo dhl freight.
dhl freight has gained initial experience with lng trucks in belgium. since summer 2018, four of these heavy-duty, long-haul trucks have been part of a sustainable transport solution for one of the world’s largest developers and sellers of athletic footwear and sportswear. now, for the first time, a natural gas-powered truck can be combined with a mega trailer, a feat previously not possible due to tank design. an internal loading height of three meters makes this equipment a preferred solution in the automotive sector as it offers not only more loading capacity but also the possibility of loading larger spare parts.
